Our Satin Glide™ 309L 0.035” Stainless-Steel Welding Wire 500lb Drum guarantees excellent weldability, producing precise and reliable connections. Whether you're tackling projects demanding high mechanical strength or stress resistance, this welding wire delivers superior results.

Satin Glide™ 309L 0.035” Stainless-Steel Welding Wire 500lb Drum

The Satin Glide™ 309L 0.035” Stainless-Steel Welding Wire in a 500lb Drum is a reliable and high-quality filler metal that promotes greater precision and control throughout the process. It has a chemical composition of 0.03% maximum carbon, 23-25% chromium, 12-14% nickel, and 0.45-0.65% silicon. The lower carbon content helps prevent intergranular corrosion, protecting the integrity of the weld to better support the rest of the operation.
