SelectAlloy 316LSi-C is a gas-shielded metal cored stainless steel electrode with a nominal weld composition of 19% chromium, 12.5% nickel, 2.5% molybdenum, 0.8% silicon and a maximum carbon content of 0.03%. The presence of molybdenum improves resistance to pitting and provides increased creep resistance. The low carbon content minimizes carbide precipitation and makes it more resistant to intergranular corrosion. In addition the augmented silicon content improves bead wetting and produces a cosmetically appealing weld.
Features
Produces smooth well washed beads
Offers higher deposition rates and more controlled penetration than the equivalent solid wire
Operates at higher travel speeds
Handles poor fit up
Provides a smooth spray arc transfer
Produces little or no slag and virtually no spatter
This wire is ideally suited for making small buttlap and fillet welds on thin material at elevated travel speeds.
It is utilized to weld Type 316 stainless and other similar alloys such as ASTM A743and A744Types CF-8M and CF-3M.
SelectAlloy 316LSi-C is widely used in the p
