| Universal 308 coated electrodes are used for welding unstabilized 18-8 stainless steels such as types 301, 302, 304, 305, and 308. Universal 308 electrodes provide corrosion resistance and physical properties... | |
| Universal 308L is the low carbon version of 308 and is designed for welding 304L stainless steel. The weld deposit contains a maximum of 0.04 carbon which minimizes the formation... | |
| Universal 309 electrodes are used for the welding of heat resisting type 309 stainless steel. Deposits retain strength and oxidation resistance up to 2000 degrees F. Typical applications include furnace... | |
| Universal 309L is the same as E309 with the exception of the carbon content. The lower carbon content permits this alloy when used in corrosive environments where it is necessary... | |
| Universal 310 alloy is primarily used for welding type 310 stainless steels, dissimilar steels and such types as 405, 410 and 430 steels when preheat and postheat are not practical. | |
| Universal 310 Cb electrodes are the same as the 310 electrodes except for the addition of columbium and the reduction in the carbon content. This alloy is especially useful in... | |
| Universal 310 electrodes were developed for the welding of 310 stainless steel. The deposited weld metal exhibits the same chemical analysis and oxidation resistance as the 310 base metal. Maintenance... | |
| Universal 310Mo electrodes are used for the welding of the clad side of types 316, 316L, and 317 clad steels. This alloy is also used for welding other molybdenum bearing... | |
| Universal 312 electrodes were originally designed for the welding of high tensile alloys to high temperature heat resisting alloys on turbine engines. However, based upon performance these electrodes have found... | |
| Universal 316 electrodes are widely used in the fabrication of type 316 stainless steel as used in the manufacture of parts and equipment for the chemical and process industries. The... | |
| Universal 316L is the same as Alloy 316 except for the restricted carbon content. By holding the carbon content below 0.04% the chances of carbide precipitation is minimized thus protecting... | |
| Universal 317L electrodes are slightly higher in alloy content than type 316L, particularly in molybdenum and are used primarily for welding type 317 stainless steel. This electrode is used extensively... | |
| Universal 320 produces a fully austenitic deposit for welding Carpenter Stainless No. 20Cb 3 (wrought form) or Durimet 20 (cast form) or similar alloys. The 320 alloy was developed to... | |
| Universal 410 is a ferritic stainless steel alloy, primarily used as filler metal for gas metal arc and gas tungsten arc welding of steels of similar composition. Deposits are resistanct... | |
| Universal 630 (17Cr-4Ni) is a martensitic precipitation - age hardening stainless steel alloy. Alloy 630 can be welded with all welding processes without preheat; however, to obtain weld metal properties... |
