Item Details:
308L Stainless steel GMAW (MIG) welding alloy has similar usage as 308, but the 0.03% maximum carbon content increases resistance to intergranular corrosion. Most frequently used for welding base metals of similar composition. Conforms to AWS A5.9.
Features
- Welds base metals of similar composition
- Lower carbon content (.03% max.) resists carbide precipitation that can cause weld corrosion
Specifications
- 87,000 psi tensile strength (as welded)
- 57,000 psi yield strength (as welded)
- 34% elongation 56% reduction of area (as welded)
- 85 HRB Rockwell B hardness (as welded)
- 160 HB Brinell hardness (as welded)
- 100 ft./lb. @ room temperature Charpy V (as welded)
Applications
- Welding base metals of similar composition such as 201,202,301,302,304, 305 and 308 (and L series)
Caution
- All parameters are suggested as basic guidelines and will vary depending on joint design, number of passes and other factors.
