Oxford Alloys Stainless Steel (Metallic Luster) E308/308L Welding Electrode, 1/8 Inch Dia., 10 Lb Can 308L-161/8 OXF308L-161/8

Detailed Description

Oxford Alloy E308/308L-16 is an electrode designed to run on direct current, reversed polarity as well as alternating current. The weld deposit contains a maximum of .04% carbon, which minimizes the formation of chromium carbides, and consequent susceptibility to intergranular corrosion. This electrode is used to weld base metal of similar composition such as AISI 301, 302, 304, 304L, 305, 308, 308L and 347. This dual classification will help eliminate redundancy

Features
