German term or phrase: IK-beständig bei Naßkorrosion bis 350°C
The context is welding-rod specifications.

What does "IK" stand for? And what does the sentence as a whole mean?

Here is more context:

"Das Schweißgut is nichtmagnetisierbar, kaltzäh, nichtrostend, seewasserbeständig und IK-beständig (Naßkorrosion bis 350°C)."
Andr� Lotter
Immersionkorrosion
Explanation:
It may be abbreviation for "Immersionkorrosion".
One suggested translation:
" The welding material is not-magnetizable, maintains it's property characteristics when subjected to cold, rustproof, salt water-resistant and resistant to corrosion when immersed (wet corrosion to 350°C). "

Have not been able to find the abbreviation in any of my abbreviation resources. Looking at the context, it is describing the capability of the material to resist corrosion under conditions of immersion.

Hope it helps
