Choosing the right one
Select the rod grade to match the base metal. 308L is commonly used for welding 304 and 304L stainless steel, so check that your welding procedure or job specification calls for 308L; for stainless-to-mild-steel joints a different grade, such as 309L, is usually specified. Diameter follows material thickness and current: a 2.50 mm rod suits thinner sections and lower currents than larger diameters. Confirm that the rod type suits your welding process and machine, keep rods dry in their packaging, clean the joint of paint, oil and scale, and run a test bead on scrap to set your current. Wear a welding helmet, gloves and protective clothing, and weld in a well-ventilated area, as welding fumes should not be inhaled.
