Product description

OK 63.30 is an extra low-carbon stainless steel welding electrode with a rutile-acid coating for welding austenitic stainless steels of the 18Cr12Ni2.8Mo (AISI 316L) type. The electrode is also suitable for welding stabilised stainless steels with a similar composition, except where the full creep resistance of the base material is required. Thanks to its easy ignition and re-ignition, stable welding arc and self-extinguishing slag, smooth welds with an excellent finish are achieved.
