Heavy coated, all position type Electrode depositing 17Cr weld Metal.
Classification:
AWS/SFA-5.4: E 430-15
IS-5206: E 17R 10
Characteristics:
An all position, hydrogen controlled electrode specially designed to join AISI 430 grade stainless steels. Weld deposit exhibits 17Cr and is of radiographic quality. The bead is fine and rippled in appearance. Welded joints should undergo post and pre heat treatment to achieve desired properties.
Application:
- Suitable for welding AISI 430 & 431 stainless steels and steels with higher or lower chromium content.
- Used for surfacing of impellers and turbine blades.
- Ideal for corrosion and heat resistance applications.
Re-Dry Condition:
Re-Dry the electrode at 250°C for 1 hrs before use.
