E430-15 Stainless Steel Electrode
EDEN E430-15 is a heavy coated low hydrogen electrode depositing a weld metal containing 17Cr. The weld deposit displays good resistance to corrosion and heat. The electrode is suitable for joining stainless steels of similar composition. It is also suitable for surfacing carbon steels, low alloy steels and chromium steels. Typical applications include surfacing of valves, impellers, turbine blades, etc.
Precaution
- Ensure the electrodes are dry. Re-dry the electrodes at 250-300°C for one hour.
- Use minimum current and stringer bead.
E430-16 Stainless Steel Electrode
EDEN E430-16 is highly resistant to chemical corrosion and to oxidation up to 300ºF. This electrode can be used for welding type 430 steel and type 410 when the Chromium content of the plate is on the high side.
E430-16 is designed to weld materials of similar chemical composition as well as overlay on carbon steels. The undiluted weld metal is ferritic, but with the dilution from mild or low alloy steel, it could become martensitic. Therefore, preheating and interpass temperatures of 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) during welding are recommended.
Application
- EDEN E430-16 electrode for welding of 17% Cr stainless steel such as SUS430.
- E430-16 is a lime-titania type electrode for all-position welding.
It shows good corrosion resistibility and good oxidation resistibility to Nitric acid.
- Keep the arc as short as possible.
- Weaving width should be within two and a half times electrode’s diameter.
- When the electrodes have absorbed moisture, dry them at 150~200℃ for 30~60 minutes before use.
- EDEN E430-16 is highly resistant to chemical corrosion and to oxidation up to 300ºF. This electrode can be used for welding type 430 steel and type 410 when the Chromium content of the plate is on the high side.
