AWS A5.4 E316L-16 Stainless Steel Welding Rods
AWS: SFA 5.4 E316L-16
IS: 5206 E19.12.2.LR16
EN ISO CODE: 3581-A E 19 12 3 L R 3 2
Characteristics on Usage：
E316L-16 is a lime-titania type electrode provided with good usability and weldability.
As the all-weld metal has austenite structure containing proper quantity of ferrite, crack resistibility is good. It has excellent resistibility to intercrystalline corrosion in the as-welded condition since carbon content is less and intergranular corrosion resistibility is superior to that of E316L-16 and it contains Mo. Resistance to heat is also good.
E316L-16 has high moisture resistance and good porosity resistibility.

Precaution：
1. Use short arc and stringer bead to restrict heat input.
2. Ensure the electrodes are dry. Re-dry the electrodes at 250-300°C for one hour.
Notes on Usage:
Weaving width should be within two and a half times of electrode’s diameter.
Remove dirts such as oil and dust from the groove.
Dry the electrodes at 350 (662 ) for 60 minutes before use.
