Stainless Steel Electrodes - Prenox-17 |
Characteristics :
A medium heavy coated, low hydrogen electrode which gives 17% Cr air hardenable welds. Hardening can be avoided through preheating and stress relieving.
|
Applications :
Used for welding of AISI 430 and similar stainless steels, stainless steels cutlery, pump parts, oil refinery equipment and corrosion & heat resisting applications.
