316LSI MIG Wire is used for welding 316 and 316L grades of stainless steel. It has more silicon content than standard 316L wire, meaning it flows more easily.
- Ideal for the power generation, chemical and food industries
- 316L is suitable for the nuclear industry and contains low Silicon levels.
- 316Lsi is suitable for joining and cladding 316L joints and overlays.
- Contains considerable ferrite for high crack resistance.
- High Silicon levels improve weld pool fluidity.
- Corrosion resistant
