OK Tigrod 16.95

OK Tigrod 16.95 are corrosion‑resistant chromium‑nickel‑manganese TIG welding rods designed for austenitic stainless alloys (18% Cr, 8% Ni, 7% Mn). They provide good wetting and general corrosion resistance comparable to the base metal.

Key Features

• Austenitic (18 % Cr – 8 % Ni – 7 % Mn) alloy with higher silicon for improved wetting
• EN ISO 14343‑A and AWS A5.9 classifications (ER307 mod)
• CE, UKCA, DB and VdTÜV approvals (location‑specific)
• Available in 1.6 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm and 3.2 mm diameters, 1 m length, 5 kg packs

Specifications

• Alloy Type: Austenitic (18 % Cr – 8 % Ni – 7 % Mn)
