What Thermanit JE-308L TIG rod is used for

Thermanit JE-308L is a high alloyed austenitic stainless TIG rod. Typical work covers tanks, process installations, food and chemical industry equipment and structures in contact with water and steam.

The rod joins grades such as 1.4301, X5CrNi18-10, 1.4306, X2CrNi19-11, 1.4307, X2CrNi18-9 and 1.4311, along with related materials. It also suits cladding runs on steel, and its deposit has an austenitic structure that resists corrosion.

  • Classification EN ISO: 14343-A W 19 9 L
  • AWS classification: A5.9 / SFA-5.9 ER308L
  • Shielding gas: I1
  • Diameters: 1.0 / 1.2 / 1.6 / 2.0 / 2.4 mm
  • Approvals: TÜV (09451), DB (43.132.19), DNV, ABS, BV, CE

Use brushes and discs kept only for stainless steel, carbon steel particles cause rust staining on the bead face. Protect the root when you weld from one side, an oxidised underside spoils the corrosion resistance.

Typical weld metal values from the voestalpine Böhler Welding data sheet, issue 11/2024. 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.
