Application
ER317L is used for welding stainless steels with similar composition. Due to its higher molybdenum content, this alloy offers high resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. Lower carbon makes the weld metal less susceptible to inter-granular corrosion.

Wire Diameter | Amps DCSP | Volts | Shielding Gas |
.035 | 60-90 | 12-15 | Argon 100% |
.045 | 80-110 | 13-16 | Argon 100% |
