What Are TIG WeldingRods?TIG Rod is used in Tungsten Inert Gas welding, where a non-consumable Tungsten Electrode carries the arc, and TIG Wire is used to supply the filler metal. TIG Wire is a consumable to the process.

These are a pound (1lb) of 36″ Stainless Steel TIG Rodswith 1/8″ Diameter, E316L AWS Classification

ER316L is used for welding types 316 and 316L stainless steels. It has a maximum carbon content of .03% to reduce the possibility of formation of intergranular carbide precipitation. This low carbon alloy is not as strong as 316 at elevated temperatures.

Features

• Consistent weld deposit chemistry and procedures from package to package improve quality and save time.

• Good bead wetting characteristics

• Great puddle control

• Clean welds, minimal “smut”

Applications

• Sheet metal applications on the appropriate stainless steel base metals.
