316/316H STAINLESS STEEL FILLER WIRE

SUPER MIG 316/316H is a G 19 12 3 H type solid MIG welding wire, supplied precision layer wound are widely designed for welding of 316/316H austenitic stainless steels operating at high temperatures (500-800°C) under long term creep conditions. SUPER MIG 316/316H is a modified 316H weld metal composition to resist thermal embrittlement which can also be used for welding 321/321H and 347/347H grades in high temperature structural service.

It is important in thick highly restrained weldments, since the possibility of premature service failure by intergranular HAZ cracking is reduced by using more ductile weld metal rather than 347H. SUPER MIG 316/316H is mainly used for welding steam piping, superheater headers, furnace parts, some gas and steam engine turbine components, in the petro-chemical industry and nuclear fuelled power stations.

Shield-Bright 316H was developed for welding of type 316H stainless steel and can also be used for type 316. It contains a higher carbon level (0.04% min.) than 316L filler metals to give greater high temperature strength. The ferrite content is also lower for high temperature service.

Typically, these are found in applications where the service temperature is above 750℉ (400℃). Shield-Bright 316H was developed for welding in all positions and performs particularly well in the vertical position with excellent slag removal.

316L STAINLESS STEEL FILLER WIRE

 

316L is an extra low carbon 19 Cr/ 12 Ni/ 3 Mo type stainless steel solid wire similar in composition to ER 316L. Suitable for the welding or surfacing of having similar compositions. The weld metal has excellent creep strength up to 850°C. Ferrite controlled between 5 to 10%. The weld metal has excellent crack resistance, intergranular corrosion and creep resistance properties. Excellent mechanical properties and resistance to chemical corrosion.

316L Stainless steel GMAW (MIG) welding alloy has similar usage as MIG 316, but the 0.03% maximum carbon content increases resistance to intergranular corrosion. Used for welding steels alloyed with molybdenum. Conforms to AWS A5.9. Packaged for use in portable welding machines.

316L has the same analysis as ER316, except that the carbon content is limited to a maximum of 0.03% in order to reduce the possibility of formation of intergranular carbide precipitation. This filler metal is primarily used for welding low carbon molybdenum-bearing austenitic alloys. This low carbon alloy is not as strong at elevated temperatures as ER316H.

  • Welds molybdenum-bearing alloys
  • Welds similar alloys containing (.03% max) carbon content
  • Lower carbon content resists intergranular corrosion

 

APPLICATIONS

Welding molybdenum-bearing alloys and similar alloys containing .03% maximum carbon content

 

SHIELDING GAS

  • Tri Mix Gas – Helium 90%/Argon 7.5%/CO2 2.5% (Short Circuit Transfer)
  • Argon 99%/O2 1% (Spray Transfer)
  • Argon 98%/O2 2% (Spray Transfer)

 

APPLICATIONS

This stainless-steel wire for MIG and TIG welding is used to weld low carbon molybdenum-bearing austenitic alloys

 


 

316SI/316LSI STAINLESS STEEL FILLER WIRE

 

 

SUPERMIG 316LSi is used for welding of 316 and 316L grade stainless steels, in a wide range of applications including the fabrication of pipe and plate. The higher Si level results in a smooth weld bead shape and even appearance with excellent toe blending particularly in fillet welds.

Austenitic stainless-steel wire electrode for GMA (MIG) welding of unstabilized or stabilized corrosion resisting Cr-Ni-Mo steels. Resistant to intergranular corrosion up to 400°C. Especially used in welding chemical tanks, pipes and equipment which are used in chemical, petrochemical, paint, textile, paper and shipbuilding industries, etc.

316LSi is used for welding of 316 and 316L grade stainless steels, in a wide range of applications including the fabrication of pipe and plate. The higher Si level results in a smooth weld bead shape and even appearance with excellent toe blending particularly in fillet welds. The weld metal has a high resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion by non-oxidising acids. Used for applications with service temperatures.
