Stainless • AWS E2594-16

KEY FEATURES

A super-duplex grade electrode that provides matching chemistry and mechanical property characteristics to

wrought super-duplex alloys such as 2507 and Zeron 100, as well as to super-duplex casting alloys

(ATSM A890)

Welding heat input ranges between 1 to 2 ks/in are recommend
High tensile and yield strength results, as well as superiorresistance to Stress Cracking (SCC) and pitting corrosion
Great corrosion resistance in a range of environments
