Classification:

AWS/SFA-5.4: E 307-16 (Nr.), DIN E 18 8 Mn B 20
IS-5206 : E 18.8MnR 26

Approval:

RDSO

Characteristics:

A medium heavy coated austenitic stainless steel electrode with stainless steel core wire giving weld deposition of 18Cr-8Ni-5Mn. The weld metal has excellent heat resistance up to 900°C and corrosion resistance against atmosphere, sea water, and weak acids.

Application:

• Easy to operate in all positions at low currents for joining and surfacing applications.
• Enhances resistance to impact and abrasion, suitable for buffer layers on a variety of steels.
• Specially designed for joining ferrite to austenitic steels, armour plates, and austenitic manganese steels (12% Mn).
• Suitable for heat resistant steels and dissimilar material buffer layers.

Re-Dry Condition:

Re-Dry the electrode at 250°C for 1 hrs before use.
