Avesta P5 is a Mo-alloyed wire, type 309LMo for dissimilar joints of un-alloyed and stainless steels and for cladding on low-alloyed steels. The all-weld-metal ensures a high resistance against cracking and is also suitable for welding of high strength steels. When used for surfacing the composition is more or less equal to that of ASTM 316 from the first run.
Corrosion resistance:
Comparable but slightly better than 316L Structure: Austenit with 5 – 10 % Ferrit Scaling temperature: 950 °C (air)
