CROMAROD® 308LP is a fully-positional rutile coated electrode specially
designed for applications requiring optimum positional operability. It is
intended for stainless steel grades 304L and 304, but can also be used for
the stabilised grades 347 and 321. With its exceptionally good arc stability,
weld pool control and striking/re-striking characteristics it is highly suitable for
the most demanding vertical and overhead pipewelding applications. The
relatively thin coating and fast-freezing slag make CROMAROD® 308LP
particularly advantageous to use when welding thinner walled material. For
structural applications at temperatures above 400 °C, CROMAROD® 308H is recommended because of its superior strength properties at elevated temperatures.
