OVERVIEW

Premium Performance for Stabilized Stainless

When you are welding on high-spec stainless jobs like aircraft exhaust manifolds, refinery piping, or chemical processing tanks, you can't afford a rod that fights you. The Exocor Executive ER347 is built for the professional welder who needs consistency. This 3/32" TIG rod is designed to weld 347 and 321 stainless steels—grades often found in high-heat environments where standard 308L just won't cut it. The "Executive" label on the box means you are getting Exocor's top-tier quality: straight rods, consistent diameter, and a super-clean surface that doesn't introduce dirt or oxides into your puddle.

The magic in this rod is the Niobium stabilizer. While you can't see it, it's working to keep the weld from corroding from the inside out when the part gets hot. For the welder under the hood, this rod flows wet and smooth, wetting out at the toes perfectly to leave a bead profile that requires minimal post-weld grinding. It runs best on DCEN (Direct Current Electrode Negative) with 100% Argon gas. Whether you are walking the cup on a 6-inch schedule 40 pipe or dabbing corners on a custom header, the 3/32" diameter gives you the versatility to fill gaps or run stringers with precision.

One of the biggest headaches with stainless TIG is porosity or "sugaring" caused by dirty filler metal. Exocor solves this with their rigorous cleaning process. You get a bright, shiny dip every time. If your print calls for ER347, or if you are repairing equipment that runs hot and handles nasty chemicals, this is the rod you want in your quiver. It’s tough, reliable, and produces X-ray quality welds that pass inspection the first time.

FAQ

ER347 contains Niobium (Columbium) which stabilizes the steel against intergranular corrosion at high temperatures, whereas ER308L is a standard low-carbon stainless rod for general purpose 304/304L welding.

Yes, ER347 can be used to weld 304 stainless, especially if the part will be used in high-temperature service. However, ER308L is the standard and more economical choice for 304.

100% Argon is the standard shielding gas for TIG welding with ER347 rods to ensure a clean, oxidation-free weld.

Niobium acts as a stabilizer that prevents chromium carbide precipitation (sensitization) at the grain boundaries, preserving corrosion resistance in the heat-affected zone.

DCEN (Direct Current Electrode Negative), also known as Straight Polarity, is recommended for TIG welding stainless steel.

While it is corrosion resistant, ER347 is typically specified for high-temperature industrial applications. For standard food grade applications (usually 304 or 316), ER308L or ER316L is more commonly used unless the specific engineering spec calls for 347.

Yes, commercial Niobium sources typically contain Tantalum. AWS specifications recognize this, and Tantalum is effectively counted alongside Niobium for stabilization purposes.

These are standard 36-inch (approx. 914mm) cut lengths.
