BOC Smootharc S 309MoL Electrodes

Smootharc S 309MoL is a rutile coated, AC/DC electrode that deposits a low carbon, 23 Cr, 12 Ni, 2.5 Mo austenitic stainless steel weld metal with a ferrite content of FN 20. The high alloy content and ferrite level enable the weld metal to tolerate dilution from dissimilar and difficult-to-weld materials without hot cracking. The electrode is very easy to strike and restrike. Welding performance is excellent, with a very smooth, low spatter arc producing a finely rippled bead surface with excellent slag detachability.

These electrodes are available in the following sizes:

• Part no: 188096VP – 2.5mm 1.7kg
• Part no: 188097VP – 3.2mm 2kg

• Recommended for welding corrosion-resistant Cr Ni Mo steels to themselves and to mild and low alloy steels without hot cracking. The electrode is suitable for welding armour plate, austenitic
  manganese steel, medium and high carbon hardenable steels, tools, dies, springs etc. which may be of unknown composition.
• Can also be used for welding dissimilar steels, such as stainless steels to carbon manganese or low alloy steels and for welding austenitic manganese steel to carbon manganese and low alloy steel.
