10 Spools of .045 309L MIG Welding Wire on 25 lb. Spools
309 stainless steel welding alloy is used for welding similar alloys in wrought or cast form. It is also occasionally used for welding 18-8 base metals when severe corrosion conditions exist, and, at times welding dissimilar steels. 308 is available for GMAW (MIG), GTAW (TIG), FCAW and SMAW welding processes.
