1 lb ER316LSI TIG Rods

This 1 lb pack contains 36 in TIG welding rods with a 0.0625 in diameter. They are classified to AWS ER316LSI for joining 316L and 316LN stainless steels. The rods are designed for DCEN polarity in all standard welding positions.

90 ksi Tensile Strength Capacity

As-welded tensile strength reaches 90 ksi with a minimum yield requirement of 64 ksi. This provides reliable fusion for matching stainless grades in flat, horizontal, vertical and overhead work. The alloy is not intended for dissimilar metals or higher-strength base materials.

Stainless Steel Build and Handling

Each rod is manufactured from stainless steel for corrosion-resistant deposits on 316L series material. The 36 in length suits manual feeding in tight or overhead joints. California Proposition 65 warnings apply for cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item

Will the 1/16" ER316LSI rod feed smoothly through a TIG torch that normally takes 1/16" filler?

Yes, the rod is 0.0625 in diameter, which matches the standard 1/16" size used with most TIG torches.

How can I verify the welds meet the 90 ksi tensile strength after welding?

Perform a visual inspection for uniform bead appearance and consider tensile testing a sample coupon per AWS standards.

Does the 1 lb tube include any flux or shielding gas, or must I supply argon separately?

The package contains only the 36" stainless steel rods; argon shielding gas must be supplied separately for TIG welding.
