Shielded metal arc welding of stabilized 18%Cr-8%Ni-Nb stainless steel (SUS 347) and 18%Cr-8%Ni-Ti stainless steel (SUS 321).

Characteristics on usage:

These electrodes are of lime-titania type for all-position welding and have excellent usability. As its metal has austenitic structure containing Nb, its intergranular corrosion resistibility is good and its creep rupture strength is also excellent.

Notes on usage:

1. Keep the arc as short as possible.

2. Weaving width should be within two and a half times of electrode's diameter.

3. When the electrodes have absorbed moisture, dry them at 150~200C for 30~60 minutes before use.

4. Usually, preheat is not necessary.
