Satin Glide™ 308LHS 0.045” Stainless-Steel Welding Wire 300lb Tru-Trac Wood Reel

The Satin Glide™ 308LHS 0.045” Stainless-Steel Welding Wire in a 300lb Tru-Trac Wood Reel offers numerous benefits that improve our welders’ experience. It works to ensure that the resulting welds display a great balance of strength and toughness. The lower carbon content helps reduce the risk of carbide precipitation, which protects the integrity of the base metal. The higher silicon content also improves the wetting of the metal, which can enhance the travel speed of the welding operation.
