Oxford Alloys Stainless Steel (Metallic Luster) E316/316L Welding Electrode, 3/32 Inch Dia., 8 Lb Can 316L-163/32 OXF316L-163/32

Detailed Description

Oxford Alloy E316/316L-16 is an electrode designed to run on direct current, reversed polarity as well as alternating current. The low carbon content of the weld metal lowers the risk of intergranular corrosion by reducing the possibility of carbide precipitation at the grain boundary. Oxford Alloy E316/316L-16 is recommended for welding base metals of similar composition such as 316 and 316L. The molybdenum content provides creep resistance at elevated temperatures. This dual classification will help eliminate redundancy
