Description:

Cromarod 308L is a rutile flux coated AC/DC electrode designed for the welding of low carbon 18%Cr

/ 10%Ni, type 304L, austenitic stainless steels. Operability is excellent with a low spatter arc

producing a smooth weld bead surface and self-releasing slag. The electrode is all-positional up to

and including 3.2 mm diameter. Cromarod 308L is also suitable for welding stainless steel grade 304

material, as well as Nb or Ti stabilised grades 347 and 321, when resistance to corrosion is primarily

required. For structural applications at temperatures above 400 °C, Cromarod 308H is recommended

because of its superior strength at elevated temperatures.
