Description
The ER318 2.4mm TIG Wire 5kg is a stabilized stainless steel TIG filler rod designed for welding 316Ti and similar titanium-stabilized stainless steels. It contains molybdenum and titanium, which work together to improve corrosion resistance and reduce the risk of intergranular cracking in high-temperature or corrosive environments.
This wire is ideal for industries such as food and beverage processing, chemical handling, marine structures, and heat exchangers. Titanium acts as a stabilizing element, making ER318 TIG wire more resistant to carbide precipitation during welding. That means you can weld confidently in high-heat applications while maintaining the metal’s long-term corrosion resistance.
With its 2.4mm diameter, this TIG wire provides excellent control and consistent feed, making it suitable for both manual and automated TIG welding. It produces smooth, stable arcs and clean bead profiles with minimal spatter. Whether you’re fabricating tanks, pipework, or stainless assemblies for corrosive service, this filler rod delivers reliable weld integrity.
Use this wire with DC+ polarity and clean base metals for best performance. The 5kg spool offers a practical size for light to medium-scale jobs while minimizing waste. This wire performs especially well in TIG applications where weld aesthetics and chemical durability are equally important.
If you’re working with 316Ti stainless steel, ER318 ensures metallurgical compatibility and long-lasting results. Professionals prefer this wire when fabricating components exposed to acids, chlorides, and elevated service temperatures.
