SFAS.4/SFAS4M ASME BPVCILC-2015 A7.6 E308H. ‘These electrodes are the same as E308 except that the allowable weld metal carbon content has been restricted to eliminate the lowest carbon levels. Carbon content inthe range of 0.04 to 0.08 percent provides higher tensile and creep strengths at elevated temperatures. These electrodes are used for welding Type 304H base metal. Weld metal ferrite content is normally targeted for 5 EN to minimize the effect of sigma embrittlement in high-temperature service. 7.7 E3081. The composition of the weld metal is the same as E308, except for the carbon content, The 0.04 percent ‘maximum carbon content of weld metal deposited by these electrodes reduces the possibility of intergranular carbide precipitation and thereby increases the resistance to intergranular corrosion without the use of stabilizers such as niobium. or titanium. A carbon content of 0.04 percent maximum has been shown to be adequate in weld metal, even though itis recognized that similar base metal specifications require a 0.03 percent limitation, This low-carbon alloy, however, is not as strong at elevated temperature as E308H or E347. AT. E308Mo, These electrodes are the same as E308, except for the addition of molybdenum, E308Mo electrodes are recommended for welding ASTM CF8M stainless steel castings, as they match the base metal with regard to chromium, nickel, and molybdenum. They may also be used for welding wrought materials such as Type 316 stainless when increased ferrite is desired beyond that attainable with E316 electrodes. A7.9 E308LMo. These electrodes are recommended for welding ASTM CF3M stainless steel castings, as they match the base metal with regard (0 chromium, nickel, and molybdenum. E308LMo electrodes may also be used for welding, wrought materials such as Type 316L. stainless when increased ferrite is desired beyond that attainable with E316L electrodes, AT.L1 E309H. These clectrodes are the same as E309, except that the allowable weld metal carbon content has been restricted to eliminate the lowest carbon levels. The carbon restriction will provide higher tensile and creep strengths at elevated temperatures. This together with a typical ferrite content of about 6 FN make these electrodes suitable for the welding of 24 Cr 12.Ni wrought and cast steels designed for corrosion and oxidation resistance. High-carbon castings to ACT's HHT grade should be welded with an electrode that is similar to the easting composition A7.13 E309ND. The composition of this weld metal is the same as Type 309, except for the addition of niobium and a reduction in the carbon limit, The niobium provides resistance to carbide precipitation and thus inereases intergranular corrosion resistance, and also provides higher strength in elevated-temperature service. E309Nb electrodes are used also for welding Type 347 clad steels or for the overlay of earbon steel A7.14 E309Mo. The composition of this weld metal is the same as that deposited by E309 electrodes, except for the addition of molybdenum and a small reduction in the carbon limit. These electrodes are used for welding Type 316 clad steels or for the overlay of carbon steels, 128 ervares pewudtufidog Wwar2s vosuoy, fq owUovoL Jo AiTsuentun cy pesuaD oon
