E330-16 stainless steel welding electrodes are
used to weld wrought and cast forms of
stainless steel of similar chemical composition
which offer good heat and scale resistance
above 1800ºF. High sulfur environments
adversely affect the high temperature
performance of E330-16 electrodes. The
heat input has to be kept to a minimum
during the welding to avoid the possibility
of microfissuring.
