Select 308LSi features a higher silicon content which delivers smooth bead appearance and good wetting action.
Features
CWB CSA W48-18 ER308LSi
Bare stainless steel electrode of nominal composition ~21 wt% chromium (Cr), ~10 wt% nickel (Ni), ~0.8 wt% silicon (Si), and a maximum carbon (C) content of 0.03 wt%.
Increased Si content compared to grades of similar alloy composition improves bead wetting and arc stability.
Low C, < 0.03 wt%, minimizes carbide precipitation (sensitization) which makes the weld metal more resistant to intergranular corrosion.
Unique manufacturing techniques provide enhanced arc stability and stable feeding.
Applications
Applications for this alloy type include welding austenitic alloys of similar composition,301,302,304, 304L,308, and 308L
These alloys are commonly found in chemical, paper, textile, food service equipment, and pharmaceutical industries.
Caution
Protect yourself and others read the safety data sheet prior to using this product.
