E308/308L-16

< CLICK HERE for additional information on this alloy >

 

E308/308L-16 is an extra low carbon
electrode for the welding of type 304L, 321,
and 347 stainless steels. The controlled
ferrite in the weld deposit gives excellent
notch toughness at cryogenic temperatures.
This electrode deposits a maximum of .04%
carbon in the weld metal to minimize the
formation of chromium carbides and
consequent susceptibility to intergranular
corrosion.
