To satisfy the various welding needs of international industries, Harsh Metalloys, a top manufacturer and supplier with headquarters in Mumbai, India, provides excellent quality AWS Class ER308/308L SAW and FLUX products. These consumables are perfect for submerged arc welding (SAW) of austenitic stainless steels because of their low carbon content and exceptional weldability. With consistent performance, little spatter, and a smooth bead appearance, Harsh Metalloys guarantees that its products meet international standards. Their ER308/308L SAW wires and matching fluxes come in a range of specifications, providing the best performance for use in fabrication, piping systems, and pressure vessels.
In order to minimise carbide precipitation during welding, AWS Class ER308/308L SAW wire normally contains low carbon (≤0.03%), nickel (9–11%), and chromium (19–21%). This composition guarantees compatibility with 304 and 304L base metals and improves resistance to intergranular corrosion. Tensile strength ≥570 MPa, yield strength ≥400 MPa, and elongation ≥30% are examples of mechanical properties. It is appropriate for demanding structural and fabrication environments because it provides high deposition rates, minimal slag formation, and excellent arc stability when combined with the right flux.

Alloy ER308/308L SAW and Flux are used in submerged arc welding for stainless steel, providing high-quality, strong welds with excellent corrosion resistance and a clean, slag-free finish.
AWS A5.9 ER308/308L SAW and Flux Welding Wire is designed for submerged arc welding of stainless steel, offering high-strength welds, superior corrosion resistance, and a smooth, slag-free finish.
AWS Class ER308/308L Submerged Arc Welding Flux provides excellent arc stability and weld quality, producing clean, slag-free welds with high corrosion resistance and strength for stainless steel applications.
Stainless steel equipment is frequently fabricated using AWS Class ER308/308L SAW and FLUX in sectors like petrochemical, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical processing. They work particularly well for welding 18-8 stainless steels, such as 304/304L, where mechanical strength and resistance to corrosion are essential. Heat exchangers, pipelines, tanks, and pressure vessels are examples of common applications. Even in high-temperature settings, ER308L’s low carbon content ensures corrosion resistance by reducing carbide precipitation. They are a great option for automated and semi-automated welding operations due to their superior weld quality, high deposition efficiency, and smooth finish.
