Item Details:
308LSi Stainless steel GMAW (MIG) welding alloy has similar usage as 308L, but the 0.65-1.00% silicon content improves wash and wetting behavior in the gas shielded welding process. Conforms to AWS A5.9.
Features
- Welds base metals of similar composition
- Higher 0.65-1.00% silicon content improves the wetting and washing behavior of the weld metal
- Yields a smoother bead in the gas-shielded welding process
Specifications
- 87,000 psi tensile strength (as welded)
- 57,000 psi yield strength (as welded)
- 42% elongation 60% reduction of area (as welded)
- 85 HRB Rockwell B hardness (as welded)
- 160 HB Brinell hardness (as welded)
- 90 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.
