S-316L.16N
COVERED ELECTRODES FOR STAINLESS STEELS
AWS A5.4 / ASME SFA5.4 E316L-16
JIS Z3221 D316L-16
l Applications
Welding of extra-low carbon 18%Cr-12%Ni-2%Mo (316L stainless steel).
l Characteristics on Usage
S-316L.16N is a lime-titania type electrode provided with good usability and weldability.
As the all-weld metal has austenite structure containing proper quantity of ferrite, crack resistibility is good. It has excellent resistibility to intercrystalline corrosion in the as-welded condition since carbon content is less and intergranular corrosion resistibility is superior to that of S-316.16N, and it contains Mo. Resistance to heat is also good.
l Notes on Usage
a) Weaving width should be within two and a half times of electrode’s diameter.
b) Remove dirts such as oil and dust from the groove.
c) Dry the electrodes at 350℃ (662℉) for 60 minutes before use.
