Nicrex E308L

An acid-rutile coated electrode for the high-quality welding of stainless steelsof the 19% chromium, 9% nickel type. Emphasis on welder appeal has resulted in an electrode that strikes and re-strikes easily. A smooth, quiet arc offers excellent manipulation and a neat, finely-rippled weld profile.
