Blue Demon 316L 3/32 (.094) Stainless Steel Tig Rod (1 lb)

Blue Demon 316L 3/32 (.094) Stainless Steel Tig Rod (1 lb)

Blue Demon E316/316L-16 is used for welding type 316L or 318 stainless steels. It has a maximum of .04% carbon content in the weld metal, which reduces the possibility of carbide precipitation and consequent intergranular corrosion. This electrode is widely used in the welding of chemical equipment.
