Description
X-ray quality welds, smooth-running in all positions for joining the most common grades of stainless steels including 303, 304, 307, 308, 309, 316, 317 and the low carbon “L” version of these alloys.
Superior Advantages
• Minimal carbide precipitation
• Excellent resistance to corrosion and heat
• All-position welding reduces the need to dismantle equipment
• Easy slag removal saves time
Extra Low Carbon
Tensile Strength: 90,000 PSI
Elongation: Up to 42%
Polarity: AC or DC Reverse
Typical Applications
• Piping and tubing
• Food and medical processing equipment
• Housings and impellers
• Tanks and vats
Usage Procedure
Use AC or DC reverse polarity with normal maintenance welding procedures. Surface area should be as clean as possible. However, Cronaweld™ 3880 is manufactured with special cleansing and fluxing agents to promote sound welds under most conditions. Hold a medium to short arc and tilt electrode 10° in direction of travel. Remove slag between passes.
