The invention belongs to the field of welding materials, and particularly relates to a stainless steel welding rod capable of resisting redness and cracking of coating. The stainless steel welding rodcomprises a stainless steel core wire with a longitudinal V-shaped groove formed in the peripheral surface, a copper-plated layer and the coating, wherein the coating comprises the following dry powder components of 10-12% of rutile, 8%-10% of mica, 8%-10% of calcium carbonate, 8%-10% of magnesium carbonate, 5%-7% of nickel carbonate, 3%-5% of white mud, 2%-4% of zirconium oxide, 8%-10% of fluorite, 1%-3% of spodumene, 4%-6% of ferromanganese, 2%-4% of ferrotitanium, 5%-7% of ferrosilicon, 0.2%-0.3% of sodium alginate, 0.15%-0.25% of carboxymethyl cellulose, 1.5%-2% of nano cerium oxide and/or nano yttrium oxide and/or nano lanthanum oxide, and the balance feldspar. According to the stainless steel welding rod, the core wire is small in volume expansion after being heated, the coating strength is high, the welding arc voltage is high, molten drops are in slag wall and jet combined transition, and reddening resistance and cracking resistance of the coating are high.
