Aditya Stainless, a well-respected manufacturer and supplier based in Kolkata, India, specializes in high-performance AWS Class ER347 Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) Wire and Flux. This product is perfect for welding stabilized austenitic stainless steels like 347 and 321. The ER347 wire includes niobium (also known as columbium) to help prevent intergranular corrosion, particularly in high-temperature applications or those that experience repeated thermal cycling. When used with the right flux, this wire ensures excellent arc stability, minimal spatter, and smooth bead profiles. It’s especially ideal for large-scale fabrication projects that demand consistent weld quality, such as pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and piping in the power generation and chemical industries.
ER347 typically consists of 18–21% chromium, 9–11% nickel, and columbium (Nb) for stabilization, along with a maximum of 0.04% carbon. The addition of niobium helps to prevent carbide precipitation during welding and when exposed to high temperatures for extended periods, ensuring corrosion resistance. When paired with compatible SAW flux, it boasts impressive mechanical properties, including a tensile strength of at least 80,000 psi (550 MPa), yield strength of at least 60,000 psi (415 MPa), and an elongation of at least 30%. ER347 provides smooth arc performance, low spatter, and easy slag removal, making it a great choice for automated or high-deposition welding processes involving thick stainless steel sections.
