Oferta
HYW E316L-16 is an all-position molybdenum-bearing stainless steel stick electrode (SMAW) for welding AISI 316 and 316L stainless steels. The added molybdenum and extra-low carbon deliver excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, making it the standard choice for marine, chemical, and pharmaceutical service.
Key Features
- › AWS A5.4 classification E316L-16
- › Molybdenum alloyed for superior pitting & crevice corrosion resistance
- › Extra-low carbon (≤0.04%) prevents intergranular corrosion
- › Rutile coating — smooth arc, easy slag removal, clean bead
- › All-position welding on AC or DC electrode positive (DCEP / DC+)
Ideal Applications
- › Welding and repair of 316 / 316L stainless steel
- › Marine hardware, chemical and pharmaceutical equipment
- › Tanks, piping, and corrosion-critical fabrication
