Avesta 308L - TIG rod, high-alloyed, high corrosion resistant. Avesta 308L is designed for welding austenitic steel type 19 Cr 10 Ni or similar. The wire can also be used for welding titanium and niobium stabilized steels such as ASTM 321 and ASTM 347 in cases where the construction will be used at temperatures not exceeding 400 °C. For higher temperatures a niobium stabilized consumable such as Avesta 347/MVNb is required. Avesta 308L is also available with high silicon content (308L-Si/MVR-Si). The higher silicon content will improve fluidity and minimize the spatter, giving a nicer weld bead appearance. Structure: Austenite with 5 - 10 % ferrite. Scaling temperature: Approx. 850 °C (air). Corrosion resistance: Corresponding to ASTM 304, i.e. fairly good under severe conditions such as in oxidizing and cold dilute reducing acids.
