E330-16 Stainless Steel Arc Welding Electrode Blue Demon

E330-16 stainless steel welding electrodes are used to weld wrought and cast forms of stainless steel of similar chemical composition which offer good heat and scale resistance above 1800ºF. High sulfur environments adversely affect the high temperature performance of E330-16 electrodes. The heat input has to be kept to a minimum during the welding to avoid the possibility of microfissuring.
