Description and applications*
Ferritic stainless steel filler metal which offers good ductility in heat treated conditions. Its composition is balanced by providing sufficient chromium to give adequate corrosion resistance for the usual applications.
Welding with this filler metal usually requires preheating and postweld heat treatment.
Optimum mechanical properties and corrosion resistance are obtained only when the weldment is heat treated following the welding operation.
This grade may be mainly used for:
• welding of similar ferritic stainless steels;
• overlays and thermal spraying.
• applications where maximum corrosion resistance at temperatures up to 850°C is required.

Marking
Each filler rod for GTAW welding is durably marked with an identification traceable to the unique product type. Welding filler materials wound on spools or in coils are durably marked on the coil or spool with an identification traceable to the unique product type.
The outside of each unit package is suitably labelled with at minimum the following data: grade, diameter, heat, lot no., classifications.
Customized labels are available upon request.
Lot classification
All our productions fulfil the Class S3 requirements acc. to EN ISO 14344.
