Frequently Asked Questions
What is ER308L TIG rod used for?
TIG welding 304/304L stainless — the most common austenitic grade — where a clean, low-carbon, corrosion-resistant weld is required.
ER308 vs ER308L for TIG?
The “L” low-carbon grade resists carbide precipitation and intergranular corrosion — the safer choice for L-grade base metals and corrosive service.
