EN ISO CODE:
Austenitic Heat resistant cast steel electrode depositing 0.4%C-25%Cr-25%Ni and Nb in weld metal. Excellent operating characteristics. Fully austenitic stainless steel weld metal. Weld metal possesses excellent mechanical properties and resists scaling at high temperatures up to 1200°C. Ideal for welding similar stainless steels in cast form like DIN EN GX40CrNiSiNb24-24, GX30CrNiSiNb24-24. Also used for repair of similar grade casting.

1.Re-dry the electrodes at 250-300°C for 1 hour.
2.Use lowest size of electrode possible and low current.
3.Use short arc and keep inter-pass temperature up to 100°C.
