Product Description:
The most harmful substrates, which are emitted during welding of stainless steel, are hexavalent chromium compounds. They are defined as carcinogen substances. Z308LCr welding electrode recently developed by Zika has a significantly reduced emission of hexavalent chromium. The total fume rate emission is reduced up to 40% and the rate of hexavalent chromium emission is lowered up to 50%.
Application:
Z308L electrode intended for welding of AISI 304L austenitic stainless steels. Suitable for welding of parts exposed to moderate corrosive conditions.
Flux coating type: rutile
Welding current:
direct current electrode positive (DCEP)
Welding positions:
all positions except vertical down
