Description

Weld Star – ER 308LSi Stainless Wire (0.8mm) 15kg

Weld Star ER 308LSi is a stainless steel wire with a diameter of 0.8mm, weighing 15kg. It’s characterized by its low carbon content, which minimizes the risk of carbide precipitation. The wire’s increased silicon content enhances the fluidity of the weld pool, leading to a smoother deposit appearance. This wire is particularly suitable for applications requiring resistance to atmospheric corrosion and boasts commendable mechanical strength even at sub-zero temperatures.

Features:

• Low Carbon Content: Reduces the risk of intergranular carbide precipitation.
• Increased Silicon Content: Promotes weld pool fluidity for a smoother deposit.
• Austenitic Stainless Steel: Suitable for welding base metals with similar chemical compositions.
• Precision Layer Wound: Ensures superior wire feeding characteristics.
• Versatile Applications: Ideal for pipe work, plate fabrication, vessel production, and more.

Benefits:

• Corrosion Resistance: Ideal for applications exposed to urban and rural atmospheres.
• Mechanical Strength: Maintains strength even at temperatures as low as -196°C.
• Smooth Welding: The wire’s composition ensures a smooth and consistent weld.

Common Applications:

This wire is typically used in a plethora of applications, including pipe work, plate fabrication, vessel production, and more. It’s especially suitable for metals like 304, 305, 347, and others with a similar chemical composition.
