Description :

SMG-308LSi STG-308LSi is a type austenitic stainless steel with modified higher silicon level to increase weld puddle fluidity, ensuring better tie-ins and potentially higher welding speed.

Applications :

Typical applications include welding of AISI 308L 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.
