OVERVIEW

Superior Stainless Welding with Blue Max® MIG 308LSi

When appearance and weld quality are paramount, Lincoln Electric's Blue Max® MIG 308LSi is the professional's choice for stainless steel fabrication. This 0.035-inch solid wire is engineered to solve common challenges associated with welding stainless steel, such as sluggish weld pools and crowned bead profiles. Thanks to its high silicon formulation, this wire offers superior wetting action, allowing the molten metal to flow smoothly to the toes of the weld. The result is a flat, aesthetically pleasing bead that requires less post-weld grinding and finishing.

Perfect for welding common 300-series stainless steels like 304 and 304L, Blue Max® MIG 308LSi delivers the corrosion resistance your projects demand. The extra low carbon content protects your work from intergranular corrosion, ensuring the longevity of tanks, piping, and architectural structures. Whether you are working in the food and beverage industry, chemical processing, or custom automotive fabrication, this wire provides the reliability you need.

Packaged on a durable 25 lb steel spool, this wire is designed for high-volume production environments. It feeds smoothly through standard MIG guns, minimizing tangles and feed issues that can interrupt your workflow. The stable arc and low spatter generation mean you spend more time welding and less time cleaning up. Upgrade your stainless welding process with the consistent quality and performance of Lincoln Electric's Blue Max series.

FAQ

This wire is classified as ER308LSi according to AWS A5.9 standards.

Common shielding gas mixtures include 98% Argon / 2% Oxygen or 97% Argon / 3% CO2. Tri-mix gases (Helium/Argon/CO2) can also be used for short-circuit transfer.

The 'Si' stands for higher silicon content. This improves the fluidity (wetting) of the weld puddle, resulting in a smoother, flatter bead profile compared to standard 308L.

The wire diameter is 0.035 inches (0.9 mm) and it comes on a 25 lb (11.3 kg) steel spool.

No, for 316 or 316L stainless steel, you should use an ER316L or ER316LSi wire to match the molybdenum content of the base metal.

Yes, it can be used in all positions, although out-of-position welding is generally easier with pulsed MIG or short-circuit transfer modes.

It is primarily designed for joining Types 304, 304L, 301, 302, and 321 stainless steels.

Yes, when welding with stainless steel wire, it is recommended to use a Teflon or plastic liner in your MIG gun to prevent contamination from steel liners.
