OVERVIEW

Exocor ER308L TIG Rod: The Standard for 304 Stainless

If you are welding 304 or 304L stainless steel, the Exocor ER308L TIG rod is your go-to filler metal. Designed for the professional welder, this 0.035-inch rod offers exceptional puddle control and wetting action, allowing for the creation of aesthetically pleasing welds with minimal effort. The 36-inch cut lengths are straight and easy to handle, while the 10lb tube packaging ensures you have plenty of material for medium to large fabrication jobs while keeping the rods protected from shop dirt and moisture.

The low carbon content in this rod is a huge advantage for fabricators. It minimizes the risk of corrosion in the heat-affected zone, ensuring your welds hold up over time, even in challenging environments like food service kitchens, breweries, or architectural installations. The arc is smooth and stable, producing very little spatter and a bright, clean bead that requires minimal post-weld cleaning or polishing.

Whether you are repairing a stainless steel tank, fabricating custom exhaust systems, or building sanitary piping, this ER308L rod delivers consistent results. It flows smoothly under 100% Argon shielding gas and fuses perfectly with common 300-series base metals. The rods are typically stamped or flagged, so you never have to guess which alloy you have on the bench.
