Stainless steel continuous & cut length solid welding wire for MIG/TIG process
DIN 8556: WK. 1.4430
ER316LSi is austenitic Stainless steel low carbon welding wire of 18 Cr%, 12 Ni% and 2 Mo%. With silicon content is high in wire compositions for better weld fluidity with fine rippled and shine weld bead appearance. The weld metal contains ferrite and resistance to crack is extremely good. Low carbon assists austenitic arc stability and improves corrosion resistance such as intergranuler type.
ER 316LSi molybdenum type grade for the MIG, TIG and SA welding of similar type stainless steels. The molybdenum vastly improves the resistance of pitting corrosion, particularly in chloride solutions and the low carbon grades further improves resistance to intergranular corrosion. Suitable for welding SS 316L, SS 318 grades. The weld metal is recommended for high temperature service up to 3500C
