BMS-318
MIG Welding Wire for Stainless Steel
Austenitic type
Compliance:
YB/T 5092 H06Cr19Ni12Mo2Nb
AWS A5.9 ER318
A5.9M ER318
EN ISO 14343-A: G 19 12 3 Nb
EN ISO 14343-B: SS318
Often used for the manufacture of highly corrosion-resistant structures, such as equipment for the production, storage and transportation of sulfuric and nitric acids, for example, from SUS316Ti/Nb steel.
1. Thanks to the addition of Nb, the deposited metal has good resistance to intergranular corrosion and stable mechanical properties;
2. Smooth wire feeding, stable arc, good seam formation, excellent fluidity of molten metal, minimal spatter, excellent welding properties.
