FOXcore 308L-T0 DG

Flux-cored wire, high-alloyed, austenitic stainless

Characteristics and typical fields of application
Rutile flux-cored wire of T 19 9 L R / E308LT0 type designed for welding 1.4307 / 304L type stainless steels with very good corrosion
resistance under fairly severe conditions, e.g. in oxidizing acids and cold or dilute reducing acids. Also suitable for welding stainless
steels that are stabilized with titanium or niobium, such as 1.4541 / 321, 1.4878 / 321H and 1.4550 / 347 in cases where the construc-
tion will be operating at temperatures below 400ºC. For higher temperatures, a niobium-stabilized consumable such as FOXcore 347-T0
is required. The scaling temperature is approximately 850ºC in air. FOXcore 308L-T0 DG provides excellent weldability in flat as well as
horizontal-vertical position. Great slag detachability and almost no spatter formation. Optimized to result in a shiny weld metal surface;
also when welding with 100% CO2. Due to the slow freezing rutile slag, the weld metal shows very smooth bead appearance and low
temper discoloration, which makes post-weld cleaning easier. Welding in vertical-up and overhead positions is preferably
done using FOXcore 308L-T1.

Welding with standard GMAW power source with DC+ polarity. No pulsing needed. Backhand (drag) technique preferred with a work
angle of approximately 80º . Ar + 15 – 25% CO2 offers the best weldability. 100% CO2 can be also used, but the voltage should be
increased by 2 V. Suitable gas flow rate is 15 – 20 l/min. Suggested heat input is max. 2.0 kJ/mm, interpass temperature max. 150ºC
and wire stick-out 15 – 20 mm. Post-weld heat treatment generally not needed. In special cases, solution annealing can be performed at
1050ºC followed by water quenching.
