OK Autrod 16.95

A continous solid corrosion resisting chromium-nickel-manganese wire for welding of austenitic stainless alloys of 18% Cr, 8% Ni, 7% Mn types. OK Autrod 16.95 has a general corrosion resistance similar to that of the corresponding parent metal. The higher silicon content improves the welding properties, such as wetting. The product is a modified variant of ER307, basically with a higher Mn content to make the weld metal less sensitive to hot cracking. When used for joining dissimilar materials the corrosion resistance is of secondary importance. The alloy is used in a wide range of applications across the industry such as joining of austenitic, manganese, work hardenable steels as well as armourplate and heat resistant steels.
