Covered Electrodes ESAB OK 63.31 316LSi 1.4430

ESAB OK 63.31 Rod Electrode

CrNi and CrNiMo steels

 

• Self-releasing slag
• Highest ESAB quality
• Suitable up to 400 °C
• Low spatter formation

 

Austenitic, core-stabilized rod electrode suitable for many applications, with excellent welding properties. It has a low delta-ferrite content for chemical applications, as well as for shipbuilding. It is mostly used for similar unstabilized CrNi and CrNiMo steels. However, the electrode is also suitable for titanium- or niobium-stabilized CrNi and CrNiMo steels up to 400 °C. It is also easy for inexperienced welders to handle. Minimal spatter formation and the slag releases itself.

Pleasant welding behavior. Good ignition and re-ignition.
