Product description
DESCRIPTION
– Stainless steel flux-cored wire for submerged arc welding
– 24% chromium – 13% nickel – low-carbon deposit
– Excellent slag removal, even at the bottom of chamfers, good bead appearance
– High deposition rates, good wetting properties and flexible parameter settings enable significantly higher productivity than with the corresponding solid wires.
– Mineral additions to forage improve both mechanical properties and resistance to cracking
– Very good radiographic quality
– Soldered in combination with WAF 325 flux
Product application instructions
APPLICATIONS
– Assembly of steels with alloying element contents between 22 – 26% Cr and
11 – 14% Ni and ferritic stainless steels
– Welding 18Cr – 8Ni steels in corrosive environments requiring alloyed deposited metal
– Joining stainless steels with non- or low-alloy steels
– Reconstitution or undercoating before plating or reloading
– Repair work on steels with limited weldability
