Victory 308L-16 3/32" Stainless Steel Electrode, 10# Tube

Most commonly used for all-position welding of low carbon 19% chromium – 9% nickel austenitic stainless steels such as 304L as well as stabilized grades such as 321 and 347. The 0.04% maximum carbon content of this electrode preserves the intergranular corrosion resistant properties of the weld deposit and weld zone yielding x-ray quality welds. Easy strike and restriking of the arc, smooth arc action, low spatter, and a self-peeling slag. Beautiful finely rippled weld bead, which when ground or polished cannot be distinguished from the base metal. Common applications include stainless steel fabrication or repairs in dairy, food or restaurant equipment, chemical tanks, or as a protective overlay on steel where medium hardness and corrosion resistant properties are desired
