| Sandvik 24.13.LR is a covered chromium nickel electrode with rutile basic coating used for first layer overlay welding of carbon or low alloy steels. It is also used for joining of dissimilar materials. The electrode has excellent arc stability and fast burn off rate with minimal stub loss. It is also characterized by improved moisture resistance, self peeling slag, high resistance to porosity and easy post weld finishing. Sandvik 24.13.LR gives smooth uniform beads and works in any standard weld position. Applications: Sandvik 24.13.LR is used for welding in all positions of stainless steels to carbon or low alloy steels. Used for buffer layer in overlay welding, Sandvik 24.13.LR gives a 304 composition in the first layer. Sandvik 24.13.LR can also be used for welding of some high temperature steels, such as 309S.
