COATED ELECTRODES
316L STAINLESS STEEL
Rutilo-basic electrode with very low carbon content, studied for welding auste-
nitic stainless steels with and without molybdenum (316, 316L, 316 Ti / Nb). It 
is very resistant to chemical attacks and corrosion saline. It is therefore recom-
mended in the petrochemical, chemical and maritime industries.
Application
• Petrochemical, chemical, maritime industries, 
• Pipes and tanks.
Products
• Smooth and regular fusion.
• Cord of beautiful appearance.
• Welding of 316L stainless steel, 188 and 1883.
• Good detachment from the slag.
Positions and polarity
Starting from 40V - Direct current.
Polarity () at the electrode.
