SHIELD-BRIGHT 309L

Shield-Bright 309L was developed for out-of-position welding when joining stainless to mild or carbon steel.

Features

Shield-Bright 309L was developed for welding stainless steel to carbon or low alloy steels and for the first layer cladding of carbon and low alloy steels. It was designed for welding in all positions and performs particularly well in the vertical position with excellent slag removal.

For joining thick sections, it is perferred the non-stainless steel be buttered with a layer of Shield-Bright 309L and the joint completed with Shield-Bright 316L or 308L. The service temperature should not exceed approximately 750ºF(399ºC).
