is used in the overlay of steel where intergranular corrosion must be kept to
a minimum. It is also used for welding mild
or carbon steel to stainless steel provided the service temperature is less than

Plus electrodes have a heavy coating and produce a concave bead with minimal ripple.
The slag is virtually self- cleaning. For
welding carbon steel to stainless steel for service below 600°F and for the
first layer when cladding. Continued
