Questions about this item

Will the .125in diameter ER316/316L rod feed smoothly through my existing TIG torch setup?

The rod has a .125in overall diameter and 36in length, matching standard TIG torch consumables for stainless steel grades 316, 316L, 316LN, 316N and 444.

How can I verify the weld meets the 86 ksi tensile strength after I finish a joint?

A properly executed DCEN weld on 316-series stainless should show uniform bead appearance and meet the 86 ksi as-welded tensile strength with 58 ksi yield.

Does the 10 lb package include any flux, shielding gas or adapter fittings I need to start welding?

The box contains only the 10 lb of ER316/316L stainless TIG rods; shielding gas, torch consumables and safety gear are sold separately.
