TYPICAL APPLICATIONS Used to weld 330 wrought alloys and HT cast alloys. It is commonly used where heat and scale resisting properties above 1800ºF are required, except in high-sulfur environments which will adversely affect elevated temperature performance. Used in heat treat & furnace applications. 85,000 psi (typ.)

Used to weld type / wrought alloy and CF-8C cast alloys and stainless clad steels. The addition of niobium reduces intergranular corrosion in severe operating conditions. Often used in food processing and pharmaceutical equipment. 86,000 psi (typ.) Yield strength: 61,000 psi (typ.)

Requires preheat and interpass temperatures of not less than 400ºF, followed by slow cooling. 100,000 psi (min.) Hardness: Rockwell C

2 Stainless Steel Electrode (SMAW) Welding Procedure The Royal Line ALLOYS COMPANY Stephenson Hwy, Madison Heights, MI (248) (800) Specifications Welding Parameters for 300 and 400 series Stainless Steel Covered Electrodes SMAW (Shielded Metal Arc Welding) Crown Alloys stainless steel covered stick electrodes are exactingly manufactured to conform to the requirements of American Welding Society (AWS) Filler Metal Specification A5.4/A5.4M. Most of the Crown Alloys stainless electrodes have a titania coating (-16 suffix). Titania-covered electrodes are very popular because they are designed to work with AC or DC machines and they operate in all positions. The Crown stainless covered electrodes exhibit smooth arc action, low amount of fine spatter and easy slag removal. Precautions Crown Alloys stainless steel coated electrodes should be treated and stored as low hydrogen electrodes. They should not be exposed to damp air, and once a sealed bag is opened, the electrodes should be used entirely or stored in a warm, dry and sealed container. Procedure For high quality welds, joints must be clean and dry. Welding current can be either DC reverse polarity (DCEP) or AC. However, DCEP always ensures the best weldability and penetration. Use a short arc, but keep the coating (flux) from touching the puddle. Try to run these stainless steel electrodes as cool as possible. Start welding at the low end of the amp range and increase amps until a smooth and stable arc is established. Fill each crater before breaking the arc to avoid crater cracks. On deep groove butt joints, the root pass should penetrate only enough to fuse to both plates and seal the opening. More penetration may cause cracks.
