DESCRIPTION
VSS-308L-17 is a lime-titania type electrode, which shows 19%Cr-9%Ni austenitic weld metal virtually free from spatter. It is superb in usability. It is excellent in heat and corrosion resistance. It is widely used for various chemical and food processing industry and buildings in austenitic stainless steel job. Peeling-off of the slag is very good.
APPLICATIONS
Welding of AISI304 stainless steel. Welding of AISI301, AISI302 stainless steel.
