ER309 SS MIG WIRE | FEATURES

- The nominal composition (wt %) of ER309 is 24 Cr, 13 Ni, and the all-weld metal microstructure is normally austenite with a small amount of ferrite.
- It is used to weld Type 304 and similar base metals where severe corrosion conditions exist requiring higher alloy weld metal, such as 304, 304N, 305, 308 base metals.
- It is also used in dissimilar metal welds, such as joining Type 304 to carbon steel, welding the clad side of Type 304 clad steels, and applying stainless steel sheet linings to carbon steel shells.
- Suitable for applications at higher temperatures, and resistant to scaling up to 1830°F.
- Welding process of ER309 SS MIG wire applied to MIG(Metal Inert Gas Welding) or GMAW(Gas Metal Arc Welding).
