Thermanit 17

GMAW wire Classifications EN 12072 G 17 AWS A 5.9 ER430 (mod.) Mat. No. 1.4015

Characteristics and field of use

Stainless; corrosion-resistant similar to matching 17 % Cr steels/ cast steel grades (seawater, diluted organic and inorganic acids). Resistant to scaling in air and oxidizing combustion gases up to 950 C (1742 F) and particularly, in sulphureous combustion gases at elevated temperatures. For joining and surfacing work on matching ferritic and similar quenchable and temperable Cr steels/cast steel grades. Lowest possible heat input is required as ferritic 17 % Cr steels are susceptible to embrittlement due to coarse grain growth. Often used only for final passes on tougher austenitic fill layers, above all in sulphureous combustion gases. For surfacing sealing faces of water, steam and gas valves and accessories, made of unalloyed and low-alloy steels/cast steel grades designed for service temperatures up to 450 C (842 F).
