E317L-16
Alloy Type: A5.4, STAINLESS STEEL Covered Arc Welding Electrodes
E317L-16 produces a weld deposit similar to that of type 317 stainless steel, except the carbon is limited to a maximum of 0.04%. In addition to the resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, this welding electrode offers good resistance to intergranular corrosion as well.
Typical Applications: chemical processing plants, condensers, petrochemical
