E316/316L-16

< CLICK HERE for additional information on this alloy >

 

E316/316L-16 is used for welding type 316L
or 318 stainless steels. It has a maximum of
.04% carbon content in the weld metal, which
reduces the possibility of carbide precipitation
and consequent intergranular corrosion. This
electrode is widely used in the welding of
chemical equipment.
