OVERVIEW

Premium Inconel 718 TIG Rods for Critical Applications

Josef Gas provides high-performance welding solutions for the most demanding industrial environments. Our 718 TIG Rod (ERNiFeCr-2) is a top-tier nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy designed specifically for Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) of Inconel 718, 706, and X-750 alloys. This 3/32-inch diameter filler metal is engineered to deliver exceptional weld integrity in applications requiring high strength and resistance to extreme heat.

The 718 alloy is a precipitation-hardenable material, renowned for its ability to maintain mechanical properties in environments ranging from cryogenic temperatures up to 1300°F. This makes it a staple in the aerospace industry for jet engine components, as well as in oil and gas extraction and nuclear engineering. When you choose Josef Gas TIG rods, you are ensuring that your welds possess the necessary ductility and resistance to post-weld cracking that these critical applications demand.

Each 10lb tube is packed with clean, straight 36-inch rods, ensuring consistent feeding and arc stability. The controlled chemical composition of our ERNiFeCr-2 rods minimizes the risk of strain-age cracking, a common issue with high-strength superalloys. Whether you are repairing gas turbines or fabricating cryogenic storage vessels, Josef Gas delivers the reliability professional welders trust.

FAQ

The AWS classification is ERNiFeCr-2, as per AWS A5.14 specifications.

It is primarily designed for welding Inconel Alloy 718, Alloy 706, and Alloy X-750.

While the alloy has good weldability, post-weld heat treatment (aging) is typically required to develop the full strength and properties of the precipitation-hardened alloy.

100% Argon is the most common shielding gas. For thicker sections or to increase heat input, an Argon/Helium mix may be used.

Yes, Alloy 718 retains excellent mechanical properties at cryogenic temperatures, making it suitable for liquid gas storage and aerospace applications.

Store in a cool, dry place within the original packaging to prevent contamination from moisture, dust, or oil, which can cause weld defects.

These rods are 3/32 inch (approximately 2.4 mm) in diameter.
