The Satin Glide™ 430LCb 0.045” Stainless-Steel Welding Wire in a 500lb Drum, known for its unmatched weld strength and resistance to intergranular corrosion, is the go-to choice for demanding welding conditions.

Satin Glide™ 430LCb 0.045” Stainless-Steel Welding Wire 500lb Drum

The Satin Glide™ 430LCb 0.045” Stainless-Steel Welding Wire in a 500lb drum is engineered with a chemical composition of 0.03% maximum carbon, 16.5-19.5% chromium, 0.5% maximum nickel, 0.30-0.60% silicon, and 0.3-0.7% columbium. Its lower carbon level increases its resistance to intergranular corrosion and reduces the risk of sensitization on the stainless steel, both of which help ensure the longevity and performance of the welded material. Additionally, this welding wire contains columbium for even greater reduction of chromium carbide precipitation and intergranular corrosion.

Applications for Satin Glide™ Welding Wire

Satin Glide™ welding wire is best suited for the following applications:

Agricultural Equipment
Auto Body

Stainless-Steel Welding Wire Storage Instructions

Moisture, dust, and debris can cause the welding wire to corrode and lose its performance and quality. To prevent this, we recommend storing the wire in a dry environment away from moisture and sunlight.
