Description
Stainless MIG Welding Wire for 316L Applications – Kiswel
This stainless MIG wire for 316L is engineered for welding low-carbon 18%Cr-12%Ni-Mo austenitic stainless steels. With added silicon, the wire provides superior arc stability, excellent weld bead wetting, and cleaner welds. As a result, it’s ideal for high-spec applications in the chemical, marine, and cryogenic industries.
The wire operates using argon shielding gas and DC(+) polarity, and it performs best in flat and horizontal-fillet positions. It is certified according to AWS and EN welding standards, ensuring dependable quality for both manual and automated welding operations.
