Weldcote E316L-16 Stainless Steel Electrodes Produce Weld Deposits Similar To That Of 316-16, But With A Maximum Of 0.04% Carbon. This Extra Low Carbon Content Gives The Weld Deposit Excellent Resistance Against Intergranular Corrosion Caused By Carbide Precipitation. Weldcote 316L Electrodes Are Used For Welding 18%Cr-12%Ni-2.5%Mo Stainless Steels Where The Corrosion Resistance Qualities Of Aisi 316L Are Required. This Electrode Has A High Deposition Rate And Produces A Weld Deposit With Fine Bead Appearance And Exceptional Crack Resistance. 316L-16 Electrodes Are Most Commonly Used In The Textile, Paper, Cellulose And Chemical Equipment Industries For The Fabrication Of 316L, 318, And 319L Stainless Steel Products.
