AVESTA 316L/SKR is designed for welding austenitic stainless steel type 17 Cr 12 Ni 2.5 Mo or similar, where high resistance to general and inter crystalline corrosion is required. It is also suitable for welding titanium and niobium stabilised steels such as ASTM 316Ti in cases where the construction will be used at temperatures not exceeding 400°C. For higher temperatures a niobium stabilised consumable such as AVESTA 318/SKNb is required.Avesta Welding also supplies a type 316L wire with high silicon content (0.85 %) named AVESTA 316L-Si/SKR-Si. The higher silicon content will improve fluidity and weld bead appearance.
Features
Excellent resistance to general pitting and intercrystalline corrosion.
