904L Welding Wire
Short Description:
316L Stainless Steel Wire (SS316L Wire)
The 316L stainless steel wire is an ultra-low carbon version of 316 with a carbon content of max 0.03%, so it has excellent weldability and requires almost no heat treatment after welding. Both 316 and 316L contain molybdenum and are therefore more resistant to corrosion and are suitable for use in marine environments.
Hightop offers quality annealed and cold drawn stainless steel wire with a wire diameter in the range of 0.002-0.125 inch (0.05-3.2 mm), which is mainly used to make stainless steel mesh and filter.
ER385 (904L) is used for welding materials of similar chemical composition, which are used for fabrication of equipment and vessels for handling of sulfuric acid and many chloride containing media. This filler metal may also find applications for joining Type 317L material where improved corrosion resistance in specific media is needed. In order to reduce the propensity for fissuring and hot cracking, the low melting constituents such as carbon, silicon, and phosphorus are controlled to lower levels in this alloy.
904L is a high-alloy austenitic stainless steel with low carbon content. 904L has good resistance to general corrosion, particularly in sulfuric and phosphoric conditions. It has been application proved over many years and was originally developed to resist corrosion in dilute sulfuric acid.
