1000 In Stock


ALFA ER316L Stainless Steel Welding Wire is a solid, smooth wire primarily intended for welding low-carbon, molybdenum-alloyed 316L austenitic stainless steel of similar composition. It is also suitable for normal 316 grade and Nb/Ti stabilized steels where service temperatures are below 400°C. It is widely used in chemical process plants and provides improved resistance to general corrosion and pitting in marine and industrial environments. The deposited weld metal is of radiographic quality.
