Stainless steel Weld Wire ER308,ER308L,ER308Si,ER308LSi,ER309,ER309L,ER310,ER316,ER316L；

stainless steel wire is mainly divided into two kinds, one is solid cored wire, and a flux cored wire. Welding wire in use, mainly according to the need for different welding material selection of different welding wire. ER308H stainless steel welding wire is mainly used for welding 18Cr-8Ni stainless steel. ER309Mo stainless steel welding wire is mainly used for welding 22Cr-12Ni-2.5Mo steel. ER409Cb stainless steel welding wire is mainly used for welding 409,410 stainless steel.

Application

WW308 is used to MIG, and submerged arc welding of un-stabilized stainless steels such as Types 301, 302, 304, 305, 308. This filler metal is the most popular grade among stainless steels, used for general purpose applications where corrosion conditions are moderate.

Deposited Chemical Composition % (Typical)
C = 0.04	Si = 0.30	Mn = 1.8
P = 0.009	S = 0.009	Cr = 20.0
Ni = 9.5	N = 0.05

Mechanical Properties (R.T.)
Yield Strength	61,000 psi
Tensile Strength	90,000 psi
Elongation	41%
Reduction of Area	60%

Deposited All Weld Metal Properties
Data is typical for ER308 weld metal deposited by Mig using Argon + 2% oxygen as the shielding gas. Data on sub-arc is not presented, as sub-arc is dependent on the type of flux used.

	.035	13-26	60-140	16-22	Argon+2% O2	25
Spray Arc Welding	.035	20-39	140-220	24-29	Argon+2% O2	38
	.045	16-30	160-260	25-30	Argon+2% O2	38
	1/16	10-16	230-350	27-31	Argon+2% O2	38

Other shielding Gases may be used for Mig welding. Shielding gases are chosen taking Quality, Cost, and Operability into consideration

Recommended Welding Parameters
SAW “Submerged Arc Welding Process”		REversed Polarity Suggested
Wire Diameter	Amps	Volts
3/32	250-450	28-32
1/8	300-500	29-34
5/32	400-600	30-35
3/16	500-700	30-35

Both Agglomerated and fused fluxes can be used for submerged arc welding.
Note: The chemical composition of the flux mainly affects the chemistry of the weld metal and consequently its corrosion resistance and Mechanical properties.
