Vibrant ER309L TIG Weld Wire SS - .035in Thick (0.9mm) / 39.5in Long Rod - 1 Lb. Box
Vibrant ER309L TIG weld wire consists of .035 inch diameter stainless steel rods measuring 39.5 inches long packed in a 1 lb box. This filler material delivers strong corrosion-resistant welds for joining 304/316 stainless steel to mild steel components common in performance exhaust fabrication. It supports clean precise seams on universal automotive projects including headers mufflers and piping.
Key Features
- ER309L Stainless Alloy: Fills gaps between austenitic stainless steels and carbon steels preventing cracking for durable exhaust joints
- .035in (0.9mm) Diameter: Fine size controls heat input to avoid warping thin-wall tubing during TIG welding
- 39.5in Rod Length: Full meter rods reduce interruptions for smoother continuous welds
- 1 Lb Box Quantity: Includes about 36 rods ideal for multiple repairs or full custom builds
- AWS A5.9 Certified: Meets industry standards ensuring consistent arc stability and slag-free results
Product Notes
- Store rods in original box away from moisture to maintain arc quality
- Grind welds clean and use dedicated stainless brushes for post-weld prep
- Lightweight 1 lb net weight package ships easily without freight
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- Use TIG welder with pure argon shielding gas at 10-15 CFH flow rate
- Back purge pipes with argon for root protection on exhaust tubing
