Flawless welds with Esab OK 61.30

Practical benefits

Superior resistance to corrosion: The extra-low carbon content ensures you avoid carbide precipitation and maintain strong resistance against intergranular corrosion.
Easy striking and restriking: You benefit from effortless arc ignition, stable operation, and minimal spatter across diverse welding setups.
Smooth weld bead appearance: The acid-rutile coating produces self-detaching slag, leaving you with an exceptionally clean finish and reduced post-weld cleanup.

In a nutshell

The right choise for

With the Esab ok 61.30 welding electrodes, you achieve clean and reliable joints on austenitic stainless steels such as aisi 304 and 304L. The extra-low carbon content provides optimal protection against intergranular corrosion. Featuring a 2.0 mm diameter and a 300 mm length, this electrode is ideal for thin-walled sheet metal and precision fabrication. The acid-rutile coating ensures effortless arc striking, low spatter, and self-detaching slag, leaving a smooth weld bead with minimal post-weld cleanup. This pack of 129 electrodes operates seamlessly on both ac and DC+.

Product description

OK 61.30 is an extra low-carbon stainless steel welding electrode with a rutile-acid coating for welding austenitic stainless steels of the 19Cr10Ni (AISI 304L) type. The electrode is also suitable for stabilised stainless steel grades with a similar composition, provided that full creep resistance of the base material is not required. Thanks to its easy ignition and re-ignition, stable welding arc and self-discharging slag, OK 61.30 produces a smooth weld with an excellent finish.
