Ferritic, Austenitic, & Duplex Stainless Steels

FOR WELDING LOW CARBON 19Cr-10Ni-2.5Mo AUSTENITIC STAINLESS STEELS

NSK-308MoL


CLASSIFICATION

AWS A5.4 E308LMo-17

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

A balanced rutile alumina-silicate flux coating which concentrically extruded on a fully alloyed core wire and bound by a blend of silicates that assures both coating strength and resistance to subsequent moisture absorption. These also gives combine ease of use with the smooth appearance of weld deposits

WELDING FEATURES OF THE ELECTRODE

Suitable for use on all welding set including low voltage welding set. The arc is exceptionally smooth, the slag normally detaching & the weld appearance excellent. For all-positional welding ideally use smaller diameters.

APPLICATIONS AND MATERIALS TO BE WELDED

These electrodes are the same as NSK-308L, except for the addition of molybdenum. NSK-308MoL electrodes are recommended for welding ASTM CF3M stainless steel castings, as they match the base metal with regard to chromium, nickel, and molybdenum. They may also be used for welding wrought materials such as Type 316L stainless when increased ferrite is desired beyond that attainable with E316L electrodes.

WELDING AMPERAGE AC and DC


OTHER DATA

Electrodes that have become damp should be re-dried at 150oC for 1 hour
