SelectAlloy 316LT0-3
Stainless Steel / Flux Cored / Self Shielded
Features
- Low C, < 0.04 wt%, minimizes carbide precipitation (sensitization) which makes the weld metal more resistant to intergranular corrosion.
- The addition of Mo improves resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion compared to type 308 stainless steel.
- Designed for welding in either the flat or horizontal position where gas-shielding is not possible.
- Arc transfer is globular, with low spatter, and resulting bead is flat and well washed with a fine ripple surface.
- Applications for this alloy type include welding in the pulp and paper industry, chemical and textile processing equipment, furnace parts and in parts exposed to marine environments. Alloy types for welding include 316 stainless and similar alloys, such as A743 and A744 as well as CF-3M and CF-8M.
