RATNA 309L (AWS A5.4 E309L-16)

Extra low carbon 23Cr/12Ni type stainless steel electrode.

Classification:

AWS/SFA-5.4: E 309L-16, DIN 23 12 LR 23
IS-5206: E 23.12LR 26, BS 23 12 LR

Approval:

LRA, TOYO

Characteristics:

An extra low carbon, all position electrode giving 24/12 deposit with excellent resistance to chemical corrosion, corrosion at elevated temperature and oxidation. Gives stable arc, low spatter, smooth weld profile, easily removable slag. The weld deposits are radiographically sound.

Application:

Suitable for welding 24/12 stainless steel grades of AISI 309L.
Welding similar and dissimilar steels e.g., Stainless steel to carbon steel and low alloy steels.
Straight chrome steels.

Re-Dry Condition:

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