304 Stainless Filler Rod

For welding 304 to itself use a 308 308l filler metal that offers a matching chemistry.

304 stainless filler rod. Er308l stainless steel filler rod is suitable for general stainless steel welding applications of all type 304 304l 308 308l 312 and 347 materials. For tig gas tungsten arc welding gtaw process for 304 304l 308 308l 321 and 347 stainless steels. Ferritic stainless steels are non hardenable fe cr alloys. 2 0 types of stainless steels austenitic stainless steels include the 200 and 300 series of which type 304 is the most common.

When should i use er308l er309l er316l or er347 filler metal. With a carbon content held to a max of 03 to. Weldingcity 5 lb er308l stainless steel tig welding rods 308l 1 16 x36. Please select diameter s from above report incorrect unclear product info.

Er308l stainless steel tig filler rods 10 lb. Er308l including er308lsi is predominately used on austenitic stainless steels such as types 301 302 304 305 and cast alloys cf 8 and cf 3. When should i use 308l 309l or 316l filler metal. Hot max 24188 1 16 inch er70s 6 mild steel tig filler rod 1 4 7 out of 5 stars 277.

The 316 316l types of stainless steels contain molybdenum mo and are commonly used in more corrosive applications than the 304 type. In the case of 304l austenitic stainless steel tube and pipe the proper filler metal match is one with an american welding society aws 308 or 308l designation while a 316l filler metal is the appropriate choice for welding 316 austenitic stainless steels. Additionally 309 309l is recommended for welding 304 to carbon steel or for the barrier layer for overlays on carbon steel. For high temperature applications such as in the electrical power industry the high carbon 308h electrode provides better creep resistance than does 308l.

The primary alloying additions are chromium and nickel. Er308l is similar to 308 but contains an average 02 carbon producing a weld deposit with good resistance against inter granular corrosion caused by carbide precipitation.
