Application

DURAMAX E630-16 premium electrode is specially designed for producing 17Cr – 4.5Ni and 3.5Cu weld deposit precipitation-hardening stainless steels. DM630-16 is designed for weld metal and is modified to prevent the formation of ferrite networks in the martensite microstructure which could have a deleterious effect on mechanical properties. This electrode offers the combined characteristics of a strong, corrosion resistant, electrode gives machinable weld metal.

Redry the electrode at 250°C for 60 minutes prior to use.
