EX80SB200000930TS2 - Exocor ER80S-B2 Chrome-Moly TIG Rod 3/32" (10lb Tube)

Reliable Chrome-Moly TIG Rods for Critical Pipe Welding

When you are welding "chrome-moly" pipe, you need a filler metal that matches the base material's strength and heat resistance perfectly. The Exocor ER80S-B2 TIG Rod is your go-to solution for welding 1-1/4 Chrome, 1/2 Moly steels found in high-pressure steam lines and process piping. This 3/32" rod is designed to lay down smooth, defect-free beads that can withstand the stresses of high-temperature service. If you are working in a refinery or power plant, you know that B2 material is chosen for its ability to resist creep—the tendency of metal to slowly deform under stress at high heat. This rod ensures your weld seam is just as tough as the pipe itself.

Welding with ER80S-B2 requires skill and attention to procedure. Because the alloy hardens easily in air, it is susceptible to cracking if cooled too quickly. You must maintain a preheat of at least 300°F during the weld and ensure the part is properly heat-treated afterwards to relieve stress. Exocor makes this process smoother by providing rods that are clean and consistent. You won't be fighting with impurities or inconsistent diameters; instead, you get a stable arc and a puddle that wets out nicely, allowing you to focus on your travel speed and heat input.

Packaged in a durable 10lb tube, these 36-inch rods are easy to store and transport around the job site. The 3/32" diameter is versatile, offering good control for root passes on heavier wall pipe while still carrying enough metal for fill passes. Trust Exocor for your critical alloy welding needs and get the results your inspection report demands.
