Stainless steel filler metal benefits and considerations stainless steel filler metal has a number of advantages over other metals because of its unique chemical composition but it also comes with some considerations that are important for welders to be aware of.
While filler metals with 308 308l 316 and 309l designations are appropriate for welding austenitic stainless steel tube and pipe it s still important to know the attributes benefits and limitations of the specific types of filler metals within each designation.

Cf 8m and cf 3m are the cast equivalents of 316 and 316l respectively.
The 316 316l types of stainless steels contain molybdenum mo and are commonly used in more corrosive applications than the 304 type.
For welding 304 to itself use a 308 308l filler metal that offers a matching chemistry.
