DETAILS
316LSi stainless-steel GMAW (MIG) welding alloy has similar usage as 316L, but the 0.65-1.00% silicon content improves wash and wetting behavior in the gas shielded welding processes. Conforms to AWS A5.9.
Features
- Stainless steel 316LSi MIG welding wire welds low carbon molybdenum-bearing austenitic alloys
- Lower carbon content (.03%) resists carbide precipitation
- Higher 0.65-1.00% silicon content improves the wetting and washing behavior of the weld metal, yielding a smoother bead in the gas-shielded welding process
- 88,000 psi tensile strength (as welded)
- 58,000 psi yield strength (as welded)
- 37% elongation; 68% reduction of area (as welded)
- 85 HRB Rockwell B hardness (as welded)
- 160 HB Brinell hardness (as welded)
- 95 ft./lb. @ room temperature Charpy V (as welded)
- Conforms to ANSI/AWS A5.9 & ASME SFA 5.9 ER 316LSi
