The Lincoln® ER316/316L TIG (GTAW) Rod is a premium stainless steel filler metal designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial fabrication and maintenance. Engineered with a specific chemical composition, this rod features a 2-3% Molybdenum content, which provides exceptional resistance to pitting corrosion, particularly in environments containing chlorides or other halides. This makes it an ideal choice for the chemical processing, textile, and pulp and paper industries where corrosion resistance is paramount.
In addition to its alloy content, this rod is manufactured with a low carbon specification (0.03% maximum). This "L" grade characteristic is crucial for preventing carbide precipitation during the welding process, thereby enhancing resistance to intergranular corrosion without the need for post-weld heat treatment. It meets AWS A5.9 classifications for both ER316 and ER316L, offering versatility for inventory management and application suitability.
Quality assurance is a hallmark of the Lincoln Electric consumable line. These rods are Q2 Lot® Tested, meaning a certificate showing the actual wire composition and calculated ferrite number (FN) is available online for every lot. This level of traceability is essential for MRO managers and procurement specialists dealing with code-compliant projects or critical infrastructure repairs. The product is supplied in a 30 lb master carton containing three 10 lb tubes, ensuring material stays clean and protected until use.
