SHIELD-BRIGHT 316H

Shield-Bright 316H was developed for out-of-position welding when required in high temperature service when using 316 steel.

Features

Shield-Bright 316H was developed for welding Type 316H stainless steel and can also be used for Type 316. It contains a higher carbon level (0.04% min.) than 316L filler metals to give greater high temperature strength. The ferrite content is also lower for high temperature service. Typically these are found in applications where the service temperature is above 750°F (400°C).

Shield-Bright 316H was developed for welding in all positions and performs particularly well in the vertical position with excellent slag removal.
