THS-309/THT-309 (ER309)

ER309 Stainless Steel Welding Wire | High Temp Resistance
AWS Classification: AWS A5.9 ER309

Application

  • Shipbuilding
  • Pressure Vessel
  • Energy Industry
  • Heavy Machinery

DETAILS

THS-309/THT-309 (ER309) is a 24%Cr-13%Ni stainless steel welding wire. Due to its high alloy content, it offers excellent high-temperature resistance, a stable welding arc, aesthetic bead appearance, and outstanding all-position usability.

Features

  • 24%Cr-13%Ni high-alloy stainless steel chemical composition
  • Excellent resistance to high-temperature oxidation, scaling, and thermal corrosion
  • Stable welding arc with minimal spatter and smooth, attractive bead profile
  • Superior all-position welding performance

Typical Applications

  • Joining dissimilar metals, such as stainless steel to carbon or low-alloy steels
  • High-temperature industrial equipment, furnace components, and heat exchangers
  • Stainless steel cladding and buffer layer welding on mild steel
  • Industrial kilns, incinerators, and thermal processing machinery

Welding Positions

  • PA / PB / PC / PD / PE / PF

 

WARNING

  • Rust, oil, moisture, and other contaminants must be removed from the weld zone before welding.
  • Shielding gas: Ar + (1%–3%) O₂ is recommended for THS-309, and pure Ar for THT-309.
