Solid Wire Electrode BA-MIG 316H for MIG/MAG Welding

Classification:
EN ISO 14343-A: G 19 12 3 H
SFA 5.9 / AWS A5.9: ER316H

Datasheet German Datasheet English

Main Application

BA-MIG 316H is a solid wire electrode for GMAW, suitable to weld austenitic stainless steels that will operate at high temperatures 500-800°C, under long term creep conditions. BA-MIG 316H is also suitable for welding 321/321H and 347/347H grades for high temperature service. Recommended for welding steam piping, super heater headers for petro-chemical industry and power plants.

Suitable fluxes: BF 38, WP 380

Flux type suitability is strongly dependent on its application. In combination with the wire electrode the most suitable flux should match the requirements of the plate material as closely as possible under the existing welding conditions. Further information can be obtained from the technical flux data sheets.
