Description:
Cromarod Duplex B is a basic flux coated electrode intended for welding similar composition duplex
stainless steels e.g. 1.4462, UNS 31803. The basic coating design produces a very low micro-oxide
level in the deposit, giving excellent fracture toughness at temperatures down to -46 °C.
Duplex stainless steels offer an excellent combination of high strength and very good resistance to
chloride induced pitting and stress corrosion cracking.
A heat input range of 0,5-2,5 kJ/mm is recommended to maintain a favourable ferrite/austenite phase
balance in the weld metal.
Applications:
Offshore, platform, pipework, pipelines transporting chloride bearing products, or sour gas and
process vessels for chloride environments.
