STAINARC 310-16  is a rutile or basic type stainless steel electrode depositing heat resisting 25% Cr / 20% Ni type weld metal. As the weld metal is fully austenitic, it resists scaling at temperatures up to 1050˚C. The smooth arc of the STAINARC 310 gives exceptional weldability in all positions and promotes good weld appearance, weld shape, low spatter, and easy slag removal. Other features include easy restrike and the ability of the electrode to be used on low open circuit voltage AC welding machines. Excessive amperages, eg. Heat input, should be avoided to prevent the risk of hot cracking in the weld metal.

• 25 Cr / 20 Ni Type Stainless Steel Electrode.
• Heat Resisting, Fully Austenitic Weld Deposit.
• Resists Scaling At Temperatures Up To 1050C.

It is recommended for welding heat resisting steels of the 25% Cr / 20% Ni type, eg. 310, used as parts of heat treatment and case hardening furnaces, cement kilns, and burners subjected to high-temperature oxidation in non-sulfurous atmospheres.
