E308L-16
USA 308L electrodes contain extra low carbon for the welding of austenitic, low carbon 18% Cr – 8% Ni stainless steels such as AISI-304-ELC. The weld deposit of this electrode contains a maximum of 0.04% carbon, which greatly reduces the formation of chromium carbides, thereby protecting the corrosion resistant qualities of the base metal.

E308l 15 Electrodes
Application
E308L-16 was developed for welding 304L. This electrode deposits a maximum of 0.04% carbon in the weld metal. Type 308L-16 is used extensively for welding of chemical plant equipment and may be used successfully for welding types 321 and 347 steel grades. E308L-16 minimizes the formation of chromium carbides in the weld metal.
