Weston Stainless, Midland, UK, is a prominent distributor of high-quality stainless steel welding consumables, offering dependable solutions to numerous industries. Its AWS Class ER308/308L MIG and TIG Filler Welding Wire and Rod is used for welding 304 and 304L stainless steels. This austenitic stainless steel filler metal contains low carbon to reduce carbide precipitation and improve corrosion resistance. In wire and rod form, ER308/308L provides superior weldability, high strength, and increased resistance to oxidation, and is the best choice for severe industrial welding processes.
AWS Class ER308/308L MIG and TIG Filler Welding Wire and Rod has 19-21% chromium, 9-11% nickel, and up to 0.03% carbon to provide increased resistance to intergranular corrosion. These fillers have a tensile strength of about 600 MPa, a yield strength of about 300 MPa, and an elongation of 35%. Physical properties are a density of 7.9 g/cm³ and a melting range of 1350-1400°C with high thermal stability and oxidation resistance even in severe welding conditions.
