ESAB Arcaloy 309/309L-16 is covered chromium-nickelelectrode with rutile-basic coating for first-layer overlay welding of carbon or low-alloy steels. Low carbon content reduces the susceptibility tointergranular carbide precipitation and intergranular corrosion. It is alsousedfor joining of dissimilar material. Coating for this electrode is of the American rutile type with faster freezing rate over -17. This electrode hasexcellent arc stability and fast burn off rate with minimal stub loss. It is characterized byimproved moisture resistance, self-peeling slag, high resistance to porosity, and easy post weld finishing. It gives smooth uniform beads andworks in any standard position.Weldsstainless steels to carbon or low-alloy steels.Used for buffer layer in overlay welding. 309/309l-16 gives a 304 composition in the first layer. Can also beused for welding of some high-temperature steel - like 309S. The weld metal 309/309L-16 is austenitic with a ferrite content of 9 FN.
