Where To Buy
Inquire about this product

Exaton 27.31.4.LCuR is a covered electrode of AWS E383-17 type with rutile coating and normal metal recovery for welding of high-alloy austenitic stainless steels of UNS S08028 (e.g. Sanicro 28) and Alloy 825 type (e.g. Sanicro 41). Exaton 27.31.4.LCuR is suitable for joining highly alloyed fully austenitic stainless steels, such as EN 1.4563 (Sanicro 28) and Alloy 825 (Sanicro 41), which have high corrosion resistance in sulphuric and phosphoric acids and excellent pitting resistance in acid solutions containing chlorides and fluorides, such as sea water. This electrode can be used for surfacing mild and low alloy steels to give protection against pitting corrosion in chloride-containing solutions. Because the product is a bit sensitive for forming hotcracks, a correct welding practice is important.

Performance Benefits

Over the last few decades, a significant amount of applications that were traditionally welded with covered electrodes have been transferred to more productive methods, such as submerged arc and flux cored welding. However, for applications where flexibility is essential, the covered electrode is often the best solution. ESAB stainless steel covered electrodes provide great quality, consistency, and corrosion-resistance in a full line of grades.

Electrode Types for Stainlesss Steel

Covered electrodes for stainless steel welding are categorized according to their coating composition into: rutile (easiest to use), basic (for more demanding applications), and high deposition (contains high amounts of iron powder in the coating for high productivity) types.

Factory Fresh Stainless Steel Electrodes, Straight from the Pack

ESAB's VacPac™ packaging is hermetically sealed and vacuum-packed to protect covered electrodes from moisture pick up and re-absorption from the air. All of ESAB's stainless steel electrodes are supplied in VacPac, ranging from 0.7 kg (1.5 lb) to 2 kg (4.4 lb) in 3-6 package cartons.

The small diameter electrodes are supplied in a smaller outer package CT in order to suit fabricator consumption, simplify storage and handling, and reduce overall investment.
