Description :

SMG-308L STG-308L is designed with low range carbon to help prevent intergranular corrosion, used to weld types 301, 302, 304, and 308 stainless steels. It is also used for joining some dissimilar 300 series stainless steels.

Applications :

Typical applications include welding of AISI 301, 302, and 308 in chemical, oil and gas refineries, stainless steel sheet metal works and rail car fabrication industry.

Note On Usage:

1. For GTAW process, use DC-EN, Argo Shield and Tunsten Electrode.

2. For GMAW process, Spray Transfer or Short Circuit Transfer mode can be used.

3. 98% Argon -2% O2 shielding gas is recommended in GMAW process.
