GEL-E316L is a extra low carbon 18/13/Mo stainless steel electrode with controlled ferrite content of 3 to 8% for maximum resistance to stress corrosion cracking, hot cracking, chemical corrosion at high temperatures up to 850o C. The weld metal has excellent creep strength and is of radiographic quality. The presence of molybdenum makes it resistant to corrosive agents of a reducing nature
Application :
Stainless steels such as AISI 316, 316L and 317L in clad fabrication, in chemical plants, paint, dye industries, etc.
