ESAB 165324R150 3/32″, OK Tigrod 309L Stainless Steel TIG Rods

The ESAB 165324R150 OK Tigrod 309L Stainless Steel TIG Rod is a 3/32″ (2.4mm) ER309L filler rod, specifically designed for TIG (GTAW) welding applications. With a low carbon content (≤ 0.03%), this rod minimizes carbide precipitation, reducing the risk of intergranular corrosion. It is ideal for welding 309L stainless steel, joining dissimilar metals (such as stainless steel to carbon or low-alloy steels), and overlay welding applications.

With a minimum tensile strength of 85,500 PSI, this filler metal provides strong, crack-resistant welds and excellent oxidation resistance in high-temperature environments. The 40-inch rod length ensures longer welding runs with fewer interruptions, while the 5 kg (11 lb) box provides a reliable supply for industrial applications.

Features:

• ER309L Stainless Steel Filler Metal: Designed for joining stainless steel to mild or low-alloy steels and overlay applications.
• Low Carbon Content (≤ 0.03%): Reduces carbide precipitation, preventing intergranular corrosion.
• High Tensile Strength (85,500 PSI): Ensures strong, durable welds for critical applications.
• Superior Corrosion & Oxidation Resistance: Performs well in high-temperature and harsh environments.
• Overlay & Cladding Applications: Used for rebuilding worn surfaces and providing corrosion-resistant overlays.
