STAINLESS STEELS
INOX 308L
MMA COATED
ELECTRODES
Rutile basic electrode with a very low carbon concentration, designed for austenitic stainless
steels without molybdenum, type 18/8 (304, 304L). It is very resistant to corrosion in oxidised
environments and can be used in all positions. It is recommended for the rst pass in all cases
where regular penetration and compacity are necessary.
