Elga Cromarod 316L Electrodes

Cromarod 316L is a rutile flux coated AC/DC electrode intended for welding the low carbon, molybdenum alloyed, acid resisting austenitic stainless steels of similar composition (316L). Operability is excellent with a smooth low spatter arc producing an exceptionally good weld bead appearance. Fillet welds have a smooth surface, slightly concave profile with excellent toe line blend-in and a self-releasing slag. The electrode is all positional up to and including 3.25 mm diameter. Cromarod 316L is suitable for welding normal carbon 316 type grades and also Nb or Ti stabilised steels, provided service temperatures are below 400 °C. For 316 material grades used at elevated temperatures, Cromarod 318 is recommended.

Classifications: AWS A5.4 / E316L-17 / EN 1600 / E 19 12 3 L R 12 / ISO 3581-A / E 19 12 3 L R 12

Typical Applications
Recommended for welding 316, 316L and common 300 series stainless steels such as 301, 302, 304 and 304L. Also suitable for welding ferritic stainless steel alloys such as 3Cr12.
