All position welding of heat resistant 22-25% chromium and 12-13% nickel stainless steels such as 309/309L to itself, to other austenitic Cr-Ni grades such as 304L, 308L, 310, 316L, 321 or 347 as well as martensitic grades 410, 420, 431, and ferritic stainless grades such as 430, 442, and 446; all of these stainless steel grades can be welded to each other or to mild and carbon steels. The low carbon content of this electrode (0.04% C) preserves the intergranular corrosion resistant properties of the weld deposit and ensures a higher ferrite content than standard 309-16; most 309L-16 weld deposits are greater than 8 FN. Weld deposits exhibit high resistance to cracking and oxidation at temperatures up to 2000F. Excellent for welding dissimilar steels or overlaying unalloyed structural steels found in furnace parts, kiln linings, heat treatment containers, forging and castings in chemical, petrochemical, power generation and pharmaceutical industries
