WESTWARD 41R268 MIG Wire ER309L
This WESTWARD 41R268 spool supplies ER309L grade welding wire for MIG processes. It joins stainless steel to carbon steel, low-alloy steel, or stainless steel grades such as 304, 305, 308, 309, and 309S. The 10 lb plastic spool feeds wire measuring .023 in diameter. Welders performing dissimilar-metal repairs or fabrication use this consumable.
Wire Diameter .023 in and ER309L Classification
The .023 in diameter determines compatibility with the MIG gun liner, contact tip, and drive rolls. The AWS ER309L classification confirms the wire chemistry matches 309L requirements for joining the listed stainless and carbon steel grades. Selecting a different diameter or classification would prevent correct feeding or produce an unsuitable weld deposit.
Build Integration: Spool, Gas, and Base Metals
The plastic spool mounts on standard MIG wire feeders that accept 10 lb packages. An appropriate shielding gas blend for stainless MIG welding is required but not included. The wire frees the operator from matching separate filler rods to each base metal grade because the ER309L composition covers 304, 304N, 305, 308, 309, and 309S stainless steels alongside carbon and low-alloy steels.

Questions about this item
What does the 85 ksi tensile strength mean for my welds?
The as-welded tensile strength is rated at 85 ksi, so the deposited metal meets the ER309L classification for joining stainless to carbon or low-alloy steel.
Which MIG process and wire diameter does this spool support?
It is MIG (GMAW) wire sized at .023 in diameter on a plastic spool, intended for standard MIG guns that accept that size.
Will the 10 lb plastic spool fit my wire feeder?
The spool weighs 10 lb and uses a standard plastic spool design compatible with most bench-top and portable MIG feeders.
