Description

Versatile Electrode E312-16 2.5mm Stainless Steel Welding Rods

Electrode E312-16 2.5mm welding rods are designed for specialized applications, particularly when joining dissimilar metals or working with difficult-to-weld stainless steels. These rods are known for their high tensile strength, excellent crack resistance, and superior metallurgical performance.

The E312 formulation contains high levels of chromium and moderate nickel, making it effective for applications involving high stress, wear, or thermal cycling. With a stable arc and smooth weld bead, it’s a preferred choice for fabricators working in demanding environments.

Key Features and Specifications:

  • Diameter: 2.5mm – suitable for thin and medium-gauge metals

  • Coating: Rutile (E312-16) for easy arc striking and minimal spatter

  • Weight: 2kg – convenient pack for general and industrial use

  • Welding Position: All positions except vertical down

  • Specialty Use: Excellent for welding dissimilar steels, high manganese steels, and hard-to-weld alloys

Common Applications:

  • Repair of tools and dies

  • Joining carbon steel to stainless steel

  • Agricultural and mining equipment

  • Machine parts and heavy-duty fabrication

  • Maintenance in chemical and power plants

Why Use Electrode E312 2.5mm?

  • Crack-resistant welds with high tensile strength

  • Ideal for mixed-metal welds and unknown steel grades

  • Easy slag removal and smooth arc characteristics

  • Withstands thermal shock and wear
