Sandvik 22.8.3.L is a strip electrodes used to obtain a 2209 (SAF 2205) of corrosion resistant overlay weld deposit on C-, CMn- and low-alloy steels using submerged-arc welding (SAW) with the flux Sandvik 10SW or electroslag welding (ESW) with the flux Sandvik 47S. There are also other possible combinations and conditions.

Applications
Sandvik 22.8.3.L is used for weld surfacing of components in the chemical, petrochemical, marine idustries where corrosion resistance on level with the duplex stainless steel UNS S31803 or UNS S32205 (Sandvik SAF 2205) is required. Typical components are pressure vesels, heat exchangers, shafts, idustrial piping etc.
