ESAB OK Autrod 308LSi Stainless Steel MIG Wire

ESAB OK Autrod 308LSi is a high-quality stainless steel MIG wire designed for welding austenitic chromium-nickel alloys such as 304, 304L, and similar grades. It is classified as ER308LSi under AWS standards, with a higher silicon content that enhances welding properties, particularly wetting. This improves the fluidity of the weld pool, resulting in smooth and clean weld beads, making it ideal for demanding applications where excellent weld aesthetics are important.

With its low carbon content, OK Autrod 308LSi offers excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion, making it suitable for welding in corrosive environments. Its application commonly includes the food processing and chemical industries, as well as for pipes, tubes, and boilers. The wire can be used with both M12 and M13 shielding gases, ensuring versatility in various welding conditions.
