What Are TIG WeldingRods?

TIG Rod is used in Tungsten Inert Gas welding, where a non-consumable Tungsten Electrode carries the arc, and TIG Wire is used to supply the filler metal. TIG Wire is a consumable to the process.

These are a pound (1lb) of 36″Stainless Steel TIGRod with 1/8″ Diameter, E316L-16 AWS Classification

ER309L is used for welding types 309 and 309L stainless steels. The dual classification ensures the maximum carbon content is 0.03 percent to increase resistance to carbide precipitation and intergranular corrosion.

Features

• Consistent weld deposit chemistry and procedures from package to package improve quality and save time.

• Good bead wetting characteristics

• Great puddle control

• Clean welds minimal “smut”

Applications

• Works well for dissimilar joints that undergo heat treatment.
