Vinit Stainless, a top-notch manufacturer and supplier located in Chennai, India, specializes in high-quality AWS Class ER316/316L Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) wire and flux. These products are specifically crafted for welding molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steels, ensuring exceptional corrosion resistance and top-tier weld quality, even in tough conditions. With a commitment to international quality standards, Vinit Stainless guarantees consistent chemistry, smooth feeding, and impressive deposition efficiency. Their SAW wires and compatible fluxes are perfect for automated welding in pressure vessels, chemical tanks, heat exchangers, and other critical components in demanding industrial environments.
Vinit Stainless’s AWS Class ER316/316L SAW wire features a composition of 18–20% chromium, 11–14% nickel, and 2–3% molybdenum, with a low carbon content in the 316L grade to reduce carbide precipitation and intergranular corrosion. When paired with the right flux, it delivers a weld deposit with a tensile strength of about 550–620 MPa, outstanding ductility, and improved resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. This wire and flux combination ensures easy slag removal, a smooth bead profile, and excellent mechanical properties, making it ideal for multi-pass, high-deposition welds on critical stainless steel components.
