Dear Experts/Mr Goswami
In TIG welding rod ER316L, carbon is kept at max 0.03, In SMAW welding electrode E316L, carbon is kept at max 0.04 in all LOW Carbon electrodes. What is logic behind it
Generally for Carbide formation, minimum carbon require is 0.04

As per SFA 5.9, C is max .03% for ER 316L,, in this case what should be done?PandithanWelding ConsultantOn Tue, Apr 2, 2013 at 8:14 AM, pgoswami <pgoswami@quickclic.net> wrote:--Hi Siva,If the intended service for S.S 316L is for corrosive environments , then the answer is NO.Like base metals , welding consumables for SS 316 could be manufactured as "Dual Certified Grades". Example as per SFA 5.4
For E-316-XX-- Maxm "C" allowed is -0.08% For E-316L-XX-- Maxm "C" allowed is -0.04%If the electrode manufacturer " Restricts C to 0.04%, yet the all mechanical test as per SFA 5.4 are passed, then this grade could be certified as "Dual Certified Grade" , e.g - E316/E316L-XX. Please check this point with electrode supplier. If the answer is yes then welding consumable certified as E316/E316L-XX, are safe to use for welding S 316L. However the consumable must meet any corrosion test, say ASTM A-262 Practice E, if required.Hope this will guide you well to cope with the problem.Thanks.Pradip Goswami,P.Eng.IWE
