Nakamura Stainless, a well-respected manufacturer and supplier based in Pulau Ujong, Singapore, specializes in high-performance stainless steel welding consumables tailored for a variety of industries. Their AWS Class ER308/308L MIG and TIG Filler Welding Wire and Rod is a go-to choice for welding 18Cr-8Ni austenitic stainless steels. Known for its outstanding corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, it guarantees stable arc performance and smooth weld beads. The “L” grade, which has a lower carbon content, helps reduce carbide precipitation and enhances resistance to intergranular corrosion. Crafted with precision, these filler wires and rods are perfect for fabricating and repairing stainless steel components that face corrosive and high-temperature conditions.
The AWS Class ER308/308L MIG and TIG Filler Welding Wire and Rod is composed of 19–21% chromium and 9–11% nickel, along with balanced levels of manganese, silicon, and controlled carbon. The ER308 grade offers robust mechanical properties and general corrosion resistance, while the low-carbon ER308L variant boosts resistance to intergranular corrosion. These materials boast impressive mechanical properties, including high tensile and yield strength, excellent ductility, and good toughness at both low and elevated temperatures. They also show strong oxidation resistance up to 870°C, making them a reliable choice for creating durable, crack-free welds in challenging service environments.
