Main Features and Benefits

STAVINOX 317L is developed to give consistent welding results and strong corrosion resistance in stainless steel applications.

Designed For Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steels
It welds austenitic stainless steels containing 16 to 20 percent chromium, 10 to 14 percent nickel, and 3 to 4 percent molybdenum.
Excellent Weldability
Smooth arc characteristics make welding stable and well controlled.
Clean And Uniform Weld Bead
Finely rippled weld beads improve the look of the joint and cut down finishing work.
Self-Releasing Slag
Slag detaches easily after welding, which helps productivity.
Strong Mechanical Properties
Tensile strength, elongation and impact resistance at room temperature are all good.
Flexible welding conditions
It can be used on AC and DC positive, to suit different site and workshop needs.

With these benefits, the 317L welding rod fits demanding stainless steel welding applications.

Properties

STAVINOX 317L welding consumables are austenitic stainless steel electrodes for components exposed to highly corrosive environments. Their reliability, corrosion resistance and ease of use make them popular in the chemical, industrial and fabrication sectors.

Austenitic Stainless Steel Weld Metal: Gives welded components excellent corrosion resistance and durability in aggressive environments.
Molybdenum Alloyed: Better resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, which makes it ideal for chemical processing, fertilizer plants and corrosive piping systems.
Good Mechanical Strength: Tensile strength, toughness and ductility are maintained, so welded joints cope with stress and operating conditions.
Smooth and Stable Weld Beads: Uniform, clean welds with good wetting reduce the need for finishing after welding.
Versatile Application: Suitable for chemical processing equipment, storage tanks, vessels and piping systems carrying corrosive fluids.
Maintenance and Repair Friendly: Effective for repair welding in corrosive service areas, which extends component life.
Reliable Performance: Behaves consistently in workshop fabrication and in difficult site welding conditions alike.
