ALTIG 308L

TIG Rods
Stainless and Heat resistant steels

ALTIG 308L is a W 19 9 L/ER 308L type solid TIG welding rod

depositing a low C-19Cr 9 Ni weld metal. Suitable for use mainly with
Ar shielding gas.

ALTIG 308L is used for the welding of 304 and 304L grade stainless
steel. The weld metal has good corrosion resistance properties,
including intergranular attack from a range of liquid media at service
temperatures <300°C. It is used for a wide range of applications
including pipework and plate fabrication, vessel production etc. Batch
with controlled low ferrite number is available for cryogenic
applications.

Low carbon reduces the propensity to intergranular carbide

precipitation, which increases the resistance to intergranular corrosion
without the use of stabilizers.

TIG rod for welding type AISI 304 and 308 austenitic stainless steels.
Excellent mechanical strength and corrosion resistance.

TIG Rods
Stainless and Heat resistant steels

ALTIG 309L is a W 23 12 L/ER 309L type solid TIG welding rod

depositing a low C-23Cr 12Ni weld metal. Suitable for use mainly with
Ar shielding gas.

ALTIG 309L is used for the welding of stainless steels to mild and
medium tensile steels. It is ideal for depositing intermediate layers on
structural steel prior to depositing 308 grade stainless steel. Also
used for the welding of clad steels where service temperatures
<300°C.

The weld metal has a delta-ferrite content of ~12% resulting in good

resistance to hot cracking.

TIG rod for welding dissimilar steels and for use with undercoats for
facings. Good mechanical strengths and resistance to hot oxidation.

TIG Rods
Stainless and Heat resistant steels

ALTIG 347 is a W 19 9 Nb/ER 347 type solid TIG welding rod

depositing a niobium stabilised 19Cr 9Ni weld metal. Suitable for use
mainly with Ar shielding gas.

ALTIG 347 is used for the welding of 321 and 347 grade stainless
steels in a wide range of applications, including the fabrication of pipe,
plate and vessels. The weld metal has a high resistance to corrosive
media at service temperatures <400°C.

The presence of niobium reduces the possibility to intergranular

chromium carbide precipitation and thus reduces to susceptibility to
intergranular corrosion.

TIG rod for welding stabilized stainless steels. The presence of

stabilizers improves corrosion resistance. Used when welding AISI
347 and 321 steels.
