DESCRIPTION
VOLTAWELD VSS-303 electrode produces a weld deposit (as welded) with the highest temperature used stainless steel electrodes for arc welding.
APPLICATIONS
It is used to weld dissimilar steels, abrasion resistant steels, high yield steels and for joining high temperature alloys to carbon or low alloy steels. VSS-303 electrodes produces ductile, crack resistant, porosity-free, weld deposits with greater root penetration and better slag control in tight places. VSS-303 is also used for Mn steels, hardening steels, armour steels, spring steels, and as a wear resistant build-up and buffer layer for hardfacing. This electrode may be used in all positions.
