AWS A5.4 : E310
▶︎ Characteristics:
The weld metal of LKE-316 is a 18%Cr-12%Ni-2%Mo stainless steel which contains proper quantity of ferrite in austenitic structure. The corrosion resistance against sulfuric acid, phosphorous acid is excellent.
▶︎ Applications:
It is suitable for chemical plants, cladding stainless steel.
▶︎ Notes on Usage:
1.Dry the electrodes at 200-250oC for 60 minutes and keep at 100-150oC before use.
2.Use lower currents and keep the arc as short as possible.
