Description

COREMAX 316LP is a rutile flux cored wire for welding low carbon 18%Cr-12%Ni-2%Mo austenitic stainless steel using pure CO₂ shielding gas. It performs with smooth arc transfer, self-releasing slag, low spatter level, and fine ripple. Its typical applications include corrosion resistance overlay, joining of type 316, 316L, CF-8M, and CF-3M stainless steel pipe and tube in chemical, oil, and gas refineries.

Operational and Packaging Data:

• Diameter: 0.9mm, 1.2mm, and 1.6mm.
• Spool packaging: 5kg and 12.5kg.

Notes on Usage and Welding Conditions:

• Use a DC power source with constant voltage and polarity DCEP.
• Use CO₂ for shielding gas for general applications. Use of mixed gas is prohibited.
• Clean up water, rust, and oil on the base metal to avoid porosity and crack.
• Proper protection of the welding place against the wind is necessary during outdoor welding.
• Proper storage is recommended when opening the packing.
