308 Stainless Steel Stick Electrodes
AWS CLASSIFICATION E308L-16 | CARBON CONTENT Extra-Low (<0.04%) | PACKAGE WEIGHT 2 kg | CERTIFICATIONS AWS / CWB / CE / ISO 9001 | WELDING POSITIONS All Positions |
E308L Electrodes are meticulously engineered for versatile stainless steel welding, ideally suited for types such as 301, 302, 304L, and 304. These E308L-16 electrodes feature an extra-low carbon content, crucial for minimizing the risk of intergranular corrosion by reducing chromium carbide formation, thereby enhancing their durability and performance in various welding applications. Designed with cryogenic toughness in mind, they maintain exceptional notch toughness even in extremely low temperatures, making them reliable in harsh environments.
Key Features
- Extra-low carbon content (max 0.04%) minimizes intergranular corrosion risk by reducing chromium carbide formation
- Exceptional cryogenic notch toughness — reliable performance in extremely low-temperature environments
- Low amperage design for AC welders prevents overheating and is ideal for welding thin stainless materials
- High deposition rate producing a concave bead with smooth ripples for a clean, professional finish
- Self-releasing slag minimizes post-weld cleanup time
- Suitable for welding stainless steel types 301, 302, 304L, and 304
- Certified to AWS A5.9, CWB, CE, ISO 9001, and Lloyd's Register QA UK — meets the most stringent industry standards
- Ideal for food processing, pharmaceutical, and architectural fabrication industries
