AWS ER309 Stainless TIG rod is used for GTAW (TIG) welding of stainless steel base metals. Match the filler alloy to the base material: ER308L for 304/308 stainless, ER309L for dissimilar welds (stainless to carbon steel), ER316L for marine and chemical service, ER317L for higher corrosion resistance than 316L. Using the wrong filler can reduce corrosion resistance at the weld zone.
- Electrode type: TIG Rod, Stainless Steel
TIG (GTAW) filler rods give welders precise control over the weld pool because the filler is fed manually rather than carried in the arc. Choosing the correct alloy and diameter keeps weld chemistry, penetration, and bead appearance consistent across procedures.
