they are used for welding in all spatial positions, except vertical down one
welding is recommended to be performed at the highest possible speed without transverse oscillations of the electrode
Special properties
high resistance to acids, as well as to general and intergranular corrosion at temperatures up to 400°C (752°F)
characterized by high welding and technological properties, stable arc burning, easy slag removal, as well as good seam formation with a smooth transition to the base metal.
Monolith M-316L-16 electrodes are designed for welding corrosion-resistant austenitic Cr-Ni-Mo steels, such as AISI 316, AISI 318, AISI 316L,1.4435, X2CrNiMo17-12-3, X2CrNiMo18-14-3, 00Cr17Ni14Mo3, S31600, etc., as well as for parts working at operating temperature up to 400°C (752°F). The electrodes are suitable for welding of boiler housings, tanks and equipment for waste oils, for coking plants, equipment operating in contact with seawater, equipment parts in the chemical, textile and pulp and paper industries, as well as equipment for the production of wool and artificial silk.

Electrodes MONOLITH RC are differed from similar products of other manufacturers by a value and intensity of welding aerosol evolution and manganese formation during the welding process. This was achieved by selecting the high-quality raw materials and high-level control of technological processes in electrodes manufacture. The E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of the NAS Ukraine and Institution of Medicine Labour of the AMS Ukraine confirmed that manganese precipitation was reduced for more than 30%, the evolution of harmful elements in welding aerosol was reduced for more than 28%.
Electrodes MONOLITH RC are characterized by an easy primary and secondary arc exciting, soft and stable arc burning, provide low spatter loss, uniform melting of the coating, excellent weld metal formation, easy slag crust removal.
Electrodes allow welding at the lowest currents. For the small-diameter electrodes, the welding can be performed from power sources, connected to conventional mains.
Easy use of electrodes gives an opportunity to perform welding by a beginning welder.
Welding in hard-to-reach places. Feasibility of electrode bending without the coating damage.
It is possible to perform welding on oxidized, greased and painted surfaces.
