DESCRIPTION
SM-309LMo is a rutile electrode used as a buffer layer in welding acid resisting clad steels with better crack
resistance and corrosion resistance. It is also suitable for welding dissimilar steels and steels difficult
to weld.
FEATURES
Smoother arc transfer, Easier slag removal, Less Spatter.
Excellent usability in all positions welding including vertical down.
Suitable for butt and fillet welding of thin plates/sheets.
Smooth and bright weld seams, Smoother with a finer ripple bead surface.
Stable arc on AC and DC.
APPLICATIONS
Typical applications include stainless steel piping in refineries and chemical plants. Corrosion resistance
overlay on carbon steel, welding of carbon steel of poor weldability.

WELDING POSITION
NOTE
1. Rebake the electrodes at 250 ~ 300°C for 1 hour and keep it at 100 ~ 150°C prior to use.
2. Use stainless steel wire brush for cleaning of slags
3. Follow the recommended welding parameters to achieve good sound welds
