OVERVIEW

Reliable Stainless MIG Wire for Small Jobs

Tackle your stainless steel projects with confidence using the Bonarc ER308L .035" MIG Wire. This 1kg spool is the perfect solution for welders who need high-quality stainless wire without the bulk of a large industrial drum. It is sized perfectly to fit spool guns and smaller portable MIG machines, making it an excellent choice for automotive exhaust repairs, custom fabrication, hobbyist projects, and on-site maintenance work. The .035" diameter is versatile enough to handle thin gauge sheet metal as well as medium-thickness plates.

Welding stainless steel doesn't have to be a headache. Bonarc has formulated this wire to provide a smooth, stable arc with minimal spatter, leaving you with a clean, professional-looking bead that requires less post-weld cleanup. The ER308L grade means it contains extra low carbon, which helps prevent the weld from rusting or corroding over time—a common issue when welding 304 stainless steel. This ensures your projects look great and last longer, even in challenging environments.

Using this wire is straightforward. Set your machine to DCEP (DC+) and use a stainless steel shielding gas mix (like Argon/CO2) for the best performance. The precision winding on the spool ensures the wire feeds smoothly, preventing bird-nesting and feed issues that can interrupt your workflow. Whether you are fixing a kitchen sink, building a custom bracket, or repairing a boat railing, the Bonarc ER308L gives you the control and quality you need to get the job done right.

FAQ

For MIG welding with ER308L, a mixture of Argon and CO2 (typically 98% Argon / 2% CO2) or a Tri-Mix (Helium/Argon/CO2) is recommended for the best arc stability and corrosion resistance.

The 'L' stands for Low Carbon. ER308L has a maximum carbon content of 0.03%, which reduces the risk of carbide precipitation and intergranular corrosion compared to standard ER308.

Yes, ER308L is the standard filler metal for welding 304 and 304L stainless steels.

This is a 1kg (approx. 2.2lb) spool, which typically has a 4-inch (100mm) diameter. This is the standard size for most spool guns and small portable MIG welders.

You should use DCEP (Direct Current Electrode Positive), also known as Reverse Polarity, for MIG welding with solid stainless wire.

No, this is a solid MIG wire. It requires an external shielding gas (like Argon/CO2 mix) to protect the weld pool.
