Actually the weld was MIG welded. Our lab results show up to 0.9% of Moly from Dilution of the base metal 316L.
After passivation, visually there's no signs of a difference. An overnight rinse with tap water (containing some Ch) showed no signs of corrosion. At least none I could see.
Now I'm...
Hi
We've welded 316L base metal with 308L filler (by mistake). I would like to know of any negative effects if the product is used in a potable water application, no more than room temp, static load (in the region of 20 ksi).
The product will be passivated prior to use.
