Description: AFM C276 is used for welding nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy (C276) to itself,
to steel, to other nickel-base alloys, and for cladding steel with
nickel-chromium-molybdenum weld metal using the GTAW and GMAW processes. AFM
C276 has exceptional corrosion resistance to a wide variety of chemical
processing environments including strong reducing environments,
chloride-contaminated media, chlorine, and sea water. AFM C276 has excellent
resistance to pitting and stress-corrosion cracking.
