For Stainless Steels Alloys

LoTherme-452F produces weld deposits of extra low carbon with balanced Cr-Ni ratio and controlled ferrite for outstanding resistance to hazards of cracking, weld decay, corrosion and pitting. Excellent weld finish, easy striking and re-striking, stable arc and good slag detachability are a few among many pleasant features associated with this electrode.                                                        

It is ideally suited for welding AISI stainless steels types 201, 301, 302, 304, 304L, 308, 308L and their equivalents. The extra low carbon in the weld deposit ensures freedom from carbide precipitation and resultants inter granular corrosion.

For best results, re-dry the electrodes at 125°C for one hour. Clean weld surface thoroughly free of any surface contamination. Use short arc and stringer bead technique.
