A201 stainless steel electrodes meet the GB E316-16 rather AWS E316-16 
 Description: A201 is a titanium type Cr18Ni12Mo2 low-carbon stainless steel electrode. When welding leather medicine have not red and cracking characteristics, as deposited metal added Mo. It has good corrosion resistance, heat resistance and crack resistance, particularly pitting good against chloride ion. Can be AC and DC. 
 Uses: Used for welding in the organic and inorganic acids (non-oxidizing acid) media work 0Cr18Ni12Mo2 stainless steel equipment. Can also be used for post-weld heat treatment of high chromium steel or welding for dissimilar metals.
