308LSI .045 Stainless Steel 30 lb Spool MIG Welding Wire Blue Demon
ER308LSI has the same analysis as ER308L but with a higher silicon content. The higher silicon content improves arc stability, bead appearance and wetting action. ER308LSI produces exceptionally smooth welds for applications that require a good cosmetic appearance. This product is used primarily with welding grades 304 and 308.
