E309LCbT1-1/4

Description:

Cromacore DW 309LNb is a rutile flux cored wire which deposits a low carbon, Nb-stabilised 24% Cr /

13% Ni stainless steel weld metal with a ferrite level of FN ~18. The wire operates with a very stable,

spatter free arc producing a bright, smooth weld bead surface and self-releasing slag. Cromacore DW

309LNb is used mainly for overlay welding of 2.25Cr-1Mo steels

Applications:

Overlay welding of low alloy steels.

Buffer layer on clad steel joints.
