Industry-leading Consistency Consistency matters to you, and it matters to us. We go to incredible lengths to make sure that our stainless products are among the most consistent on the market. We check and re-check every pound of incoming raw steel and flux. Our manufacturing processes are the most meticulously designed, diligently monitored, and technically advanced in the industry. Diameter and chemical composition of every coil are verified at 19 individual points. Exceptional Chemical Composition In test after test, Lincolns chemical composition has been shown to be more consistent than that of other products on the market! Incredibly tight tolerances means less adjusting, less waste, cleaner welds, and increased efficiency!
Outstanding Arc Stability More efficient welding translates to a better bottom line! Arc stability makes the difference! Our stainless steel and high alloy products deliver one of the most stable arcs on the market today!

T E S T R E S U LT S Test results for mechanical properties, deposit or electrode composition and diffusible hydrogen levels were obtained from a weld produced and tested according to prescribed standards, and should not be assumed to be the expected results in a particular application or weldment. Actual results will vary depending on many factors, including, but not limited to, weld procedure, plate chemistry and temperature, weldment design and fabrication methods. Users are cautioned to confirm by qualification testing, or other appropriate means, the suitability of any welding consumable and procedure before use in the intended application.
