						Description and Applications | 
					
					
						
						HM308L is a gas 
						metal arc welding wire to be used with Ar+0.5∼2.0% O2 
						shield gas. The metal deposits show excellent resistance 
						to inter-crystalline corrosion due to its extremely low 
						carbon content, and shows an even higher strength in 
						high temperatures. 
						 
						Welding of low carbon 18% Cr∼12% Ni stainless steels for 
						chemical engineering plants, textile industries, and 
						generators. |

						Guideline in Usage 
						 | 
					
					
						
						
							
								| 
								 
								While high 
								X-ray quality is required, stable spray transfer 
								mode should be maintained with a low current and 
								slow welding speed using a pulsed arc power 
								source.   |
