Weston Stainless, located in Midland, UK, is a prominent manufacturer and supplier of high-quality stainless steel welding consumables, serving different industrial segments. Of its top-end products, AWS Class ER309LSi MIG and TIG filler welding wire and rod provide superior corrosion and heat resistance, making them suitable for dissimilar metal welding. Produced from low-carbon austenitic stainless steel with increased silicon content, these filler materials have improved weld fluidity and bead appearance. Used in wire and rod form, they are extensively employed to join stainless steel to low-alloy or mild steels to provide strong and robust welds in harsh conditions.
AWS ER309LSi Class MIG and TIG filler rod and wire have 23% chromium, 13% nickel, and low carbon to avoid carbide precipitation and hence minimize intergranular corrosion. The inclusion of silicon enhances weld pool fluidity and minimizes spatter. These fillers have a tensile strength of about 600 MPa, yield strength of about 350 MPa, and elongation of 35%. Physical characteristics are density 7.9 g/cm³ and melting range 1350-1400°C, and they offer good high-temperature stability as well as good mechanical properties.
