Applications
Shielded metal arc welding of low carbon 18%Cr-12%Ni-2%Mo stainless steel such as
SUS316L.
Characteristics on usage
NC-36L and HIMELT-316L are lime-titania type electrodes, and HIMELT-316L makes higher
welding efficiency by higher amperage.
As the weld metals contain proper quantity of ferrite in austenitic structure, the crack
resistibility is excellent.
The intergranular corrosion resistibility us superior to that of NC-36 and HIMELT-316L, due to
lower carbon content.
