Value Brand 41R340 36in Welding Rod 0.035in AWS ER308L 1lb

SKU CH-Z1XP-TMPHB

36in TIG welding rod in 0.035in diameter for joining 304, 304L, 308, 308L, 321 and 347 stainless steels with 88 ksi tensile strength

  • TypeWelding Supplies
  • AWS ER308L classification matches 304/308 stainless grades
  • 035 in diameter suits precise TIG (GTAW) work
  • 36 in rod length reduces change-overs on long seams
  • 88 ksi tensile strength for durable stainless joints
  • 59 ksi yield strength meets structural requirements

Suitable Alloys

This welding rod is designed for joining stainless-steel grades 304, 304L, 304LN, 308, 308L, 321 and 347 using the TIG process. It produces weld metal classified to AWS ER308/308L specifications. Buyers working with dissimilar metals or non-stainless alloys should select a different filler material.

Setup Checks

Verify that your TIG power source can deliver DCEN polarity and that your torch accommodates a 0.035 in diameter rod. Ensure the base metal is clean and matches one of the listed grades so the 88 ksi tensile strength and 59 ksi yield strength ratings apply. The 36 in rod length must fit your feeder or hand-feeding workflow.

Sustained Use

Under continuous welding the rod maintains its certified mechanical properties provided the correct current and shielding gas are used. The 1 lb package supports extended runs without frequent changeovers. California Proposition 65 warnings indicate the presence of substances linked to cancer and reproductive harm, so maintain adequate ventilation during prolonged operation.

Questions about this item

What comes in the 1 lb package and is any additional equipment required?

The package contains 1 lb of 36 in stainless steel TIG rods at 0.035 in diameter. A TIG welder set for DCEN and appropriate shielding gas must be supplied separately.

Which AWS classification should I select for 304 or 304L stainless steel?

The rods carry AWS ER308L classification, matching the 304, 304L, 304LN, 308, 308L, 321 and 347 grades listed for this product.

What does the 88 ksi tensile strength mean when I am welding 304 stainless?

An as-welded tensile strength of 88 ksi with a 59 ksi yield provides joint strength suitable for the 304-series stainless grades specified for these rods.
