COSMAX – 316 L

Classification : AWS :E316L-16 , IS 5206 : E 1912.2LR16

Characteristics : COSMAX- 316 L Is a rutile coated electrode depositing stainless steel In weld metal having extra low carbon Cr 18, Nl 12, Mo 2.3. East of operation In all conventional position In AC/DC (+). Weld metal possess excellent corrosion resistance to IGC and resists scaling at elevated temperature. The weld metal has excellent creep strength, striking and restriking properties.

Applications : Stainless Steel such as AISI316, 316 L and 317 L In clad fabrication, In chemical plants, paint, dye Industries, surfacing, overlay applications to produce 316 L type wilding deposits.
