In this table, the electrode which is listed firs t is preferred except that for 18 Cr-8Ni stainless steels welded to carbon steels use INCO 182 for operating temperatures above 500 deg F if it has sufficient corrosion resistance.
2) E-310 rod may be substituted for E-309; INCO-Weld A may be substituted for INCO-182; and E-XX15 or E- XX16 may substituted for E-XX18. 3) Electrodes of compositions compositions other than those listed may be acceptable acceptable . Refer to the Welding Specialist at CSD. * SUFFIXES: A1: Carbon 1/2%Mo, B2: 1-1/4Cr 1/2Mo & B3: 2-1/4Cr 1Mo. * E-8018-B6 and E-8018-B8 are the new designations for E502 and E505 electrodes.
