GEN 317L WELDING WIRE AND ROD
CWI Generation4â„¢ Stainless Steel Alloys
GEN 317L Welding Wire is used for TIG, MIG and SAW welding. This stainless steel is often used for welding base metals with similar chemical composition. It has a lower carbon composition which reduces the possibility of intergranular carbide precipitation; which in turn increases the resistance to intergranular corrosion. It even offers resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. This alloy is often used in large overlay applications.
All welding products are supplied with a certificate of conformance stating physical and mechanical properties including alloy chemistry. Every welding product is manufactured to have its own unique lot identification number for full lot traceability.
Multiple packaging and shipping options are available from our facilities in the US, Canada, and the UK. Learn more about our products, the industries and applications we support, and how CWI Generation4â„¢ welding wire can work for you.
