The Bohler FOX EAS 4 M-A is a high-performance rutile-coated stick electrode designed for the welding of austenitic stainless steels of the 316 and 316L grades. Engineered by Bohler Welding, a global leader in filler metals, this electrode (SKU: BOH28766) meets the AWS A5.4 E316L-17 classification, making it a staple for industries requiring superior corrosion resistance and mechanical integrity. The 3.2mm diameter is ideal for medium-to-heavy gauge materials, providing excellent deposition rates while maintaining control.
One of the standout characteristics of the FOX EAS 4 M-A is its exceptional resistance to intergranular corrosion, effective up to operating temperatures of 400°C. This makes it the electrode of choice for critical applications in the chemical, petrochemical, and pharmaceutical sectors where material purity and longevity are paramount. The extra-low carbon content (L-grade) minimizes carbide precipitation during welding, ensuring the weld zone maintains the corrosion-resistant properties of the base metal.
Technically, this electrode offers versatility in polarity, operating smoothly on both AC and DC+ currents. The rutile coating facilitates a soft, stable arc with minimal spatter, which is crucial for high-quality finish work in visible areas. It is suitable for all welding positions except vertical down, allowing fabricators flexibility in complex assemblies. Whether used for tank construction, piping systems, or textile machinery, the Bohler FOX EAS 4 M-A delivers consistent, radiographic-quality welds.
