What Thermanit 309L Mo solid MIG/MAG wire is used for
Thermanit 309L Mo is a high-alloyed solid wire for special applications. It suits welding stainless and acid-resistant steels on tanks, process plant, food and chemical equipment and structures in contact with water and steam.
The wire suits hand work with a semiautomatic torch and mechanised stations, and it also serves for cladding runs on steel.
Classification EN ISO: 14343-A G 23 12 2 L
AWS classification: A5.9 / SFA-5.9 ER309LMo(mod.)
Shielding gas: M12, M13
Diameters: 0.8 / 1.0 / 1.2 mm
Keep the heat input down and do not hold the joint hot longer than needed, austenite expands strongly and pulls the structure out of shape. Check the contact tip, a worn bore upsets the wire feed and causes burnback. Match the drive rolls to the wire diameter and check the liner, wire slip shows up at once in an unstable arc.

Typical weld metal values from the voestalpine Böhler Welding data sheet, issue 08/2024. The minimum or the range guaranteed by the maker is given in brackets. The figures depend on the heat treatment condition and the shielding gas stated in the row and do not replace testing the joint to your own WPS.

For which materials and machines
Base materials
Material group: stainless and acid-resistant steels. The exact grades and thicknesses are in the manufacturer data sheet, and for an unusual joint call us, we will pick the filler metal.
Process and machines
Solid MIG/MAG wire, works on any sound machine for this process: welders. Shielding gas: M12: Ar with CO2 added (up to 5 %), M13: Ar with O2 added (up to 3 %).
