Boiler Tubes SS 316 wire HRB 90-95 Typical Hardness 70% Deposit Efficiency
Boiler Tubes SS 316 wire HRB 90-95 Typical Hardness 70% Deposit Efficiency
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
SS316 is a 316 stainless steel wire specifically designed for arc spraying. It produces a dense, well-bonded coating with excellent machinability and wear and corrosion resistance. SS316 is widely used for machine element repair, dimensional restoration and wear resistance applications. It has high shrink characteristics and should not be used for coatings over 0.075 inches thick.
