Stainless Steel 308 Electrodes

The chemical composition of 308 Stainless Steel Electrodes consists of 0.08% carbon,2.00-2.50% manganese,0.75% silicon,17.50-19.50% chromium,10.00-12.00% nickel,3.00-3.50% molybdenum,1.25-1.75% nitrogen, and traces of sulfur and phosphorous which makes it suitable for use in corrosive environments due to its high chromium and nickel content as well as the addition of molybdenum increasing the material's overall corrosion resistance.

308 SS Electrodes have a variety of uses and properties that make them one of the most common types of electrodes used in industry today. The corrosion resistance provided by the chromium and nickel content and the addition of molybdenum makes this type of electrode perfect for use in corrosive environments. Additionally, it has great strength and workability, making it ideal for welding applications. Other properties include excellent ductility, formability, and exceptional oxidation resistance at high temperatures, which makes them perfect for high-temperature working conditions.
