Description
The ER317 2.0mm TIG Wire 5kg is a molybdenum-rich stainless steel TIG filler rod designed for welding 317 and 317L stainless steels. With its superior resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chemical attack, it’s the go-to choice for demanding industries like pulp and paper, chemical processing, food production, and marine engineering.
This filler wire contains more molybdenum than ER316L, giving it stronger corrosion resistance—particularly against chlorides and sulfates. The low carbon content helps prevent carbide precipitation, ensuring optimal corrosion protection in the heat-affected zone. As a result, you get high-strength, long-lasting welds that withstand aggressive environments.
The 2.0mm diameter makes this wire ideal for medium-thickness materials and structural welding. It allows excellent arc control and stable bead flow, even on wider joint gaps. Whether you’re fabricating pressure vessels, process piping, or corrosive fluid tanks, this wire delivers clean, consistent results.
For best performance, use this wire with DC+ polarity and clean stainless steel base metals. Its smooth arc and minimal spatter reduce post-weld clean-up time while helping improve welding efficiency. The 5kg spool provides enough material for fabrication jobs without overstocking smaller operations.
Professionals often turn to ER317 TIG wire when standard stainless fillers like ER316L don’t offer enough corrosion protection. Its chemical composition makes it suitable for use in environments containing acids, salts, and other corrosive compounds.
