AWS A5.9 ER316
TIG Welding Wire
Argon Arc Welding Wire AWS A5.9 ER316,H0Cr19Ni12Mo2 is 18Cr-12Ni-2Mo; it is Stainless steel TIG welding wire. The metal of weld bead has excellent corrosion resistance, heat resistance and excellent crack resistance it has good resistance for acetic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid and salt corrosion because it contains Molybdenum.
TIG welding wire, AWS A5.9 ER316
Application
Argon Arc Welding Wire AWS A5.9 ER316 can be widely used in petrochemical, chemical fertilizer equipment such as 06Cr17Ni12Mo2 (SUS 316) and other materials of welding. It can be used for welding without heat treatment of high Cr steel and various steel welding as well.

Welding Positions:
Notes:
1. Shielding gas: Adopt pure Argon gas. Recommendation flow rate: 9-14L/min (AMP 100-200A), 14-18L/min (AMP 200-300A).
2. Tungsten extension: 3-5mm, Arc length: 1-3mm.
3. Wind speed limited: ≤1.0m/s.
Argon gas shielding on back side of welding part will get better welding result.
4. Mechanic property and metal anti-cracking ability of the welded metal relative by energy pass value on the wire.
5. The welding should be operated in clean surface without rust, moist, oil contamination and dust.The above suggestions are for reference purpose. Evaluate and determine the situation of the scene before starting the wielding process.
