FLUX CORE WIRE : SOREX SFC-316L
Gas Shielded Stainless Steel Flux Cored Wire (SFC-316L)
SFC-316L is a rutile flux cored tubular wire for all positional welding using pure CO2 or Argon CO2 mixed shielding gas. It performs with smooth arc transfer, self-releasing slag, low spatter level, fine ripple and good intergranular corrosion resistance.
When fabricating molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel structures—such as chemical tanks, pharmaceutical equipment, marine piping, and food processing systems—welders require filler metals that combine fast deposition speeds with exceptional corrosion resistance. The Gas Shielded Stainless Steel Flux Cored Wire (SFC-316L) series from Thermatech delivers outstanding productivity powered by Flux Core Wire Sorex SFC-316L manufacturing quality.
Using Flux Core Wire Sorex SFC-316L (AWS A5.22 E316LT1-1 / E316LT1-4) ensures that weld deposits maintain maximum resistance against pitting corrosion and organic/inorganic acid attack while significantly cutting down fabrication hours compared to solid MIG or TIG welding. The extra low carbon content in Gas Shielded Stainless Steel Flux Cored Wire (SFC-316L) eliminates carbide precipitation during multi-pass welding runs, preserving the intergranular corrosion resistance of stainless steel grade 316 and 316L components.
Equipped with a fast-freezing titania slag system, Flux Core Wire Sorex SFC-316L offers outstanding arc stability in flat, horizontal, vertical-up, and overhead positions. Compatible with economical 100% CO2 shielding gas or 80% Argon / 20% CO2 gas blends, this wire produces smooth, spatter-free weld beads with self-peeling slag. The resulting dense, pore-free weld deposit easily satisfies 100% radiographic non-destructive testing (NDT) standards for critical chemical processing and marine applications.
APPLICATIONS :
Suitable for welding 18%Cr-12%Ni-2% Mo stainless steels. Typical applications include corrosion resistance overlay, joining of type 316, 316L, CF-8M, and CF-3M stainless steels pipe and tube in chemical, oil and gas refineries.
NOTE ON USAGE:
1. Use DC (+) polarity.
2. Maintain a higher welding speed in order to get enough penetration in the down hand welding position.
Technical Advantages of Gas Shielded Stainless Steel Flux Cored Wire (SFC-316L)
Designed to optimize throughput and joint performance in demanding stainless steel fabrication shops, the Flux Core Wire Sorex SFC-316L product line offers clear operational advantages:
- High Metal Deposition Rates: Flux Core Wire Sorex SFC-316L gas-shielded wire yields higher deposition efficiency and faster travel speeds than conventional solid wire, reducing total labor costs per meter of joint.
- Enhanced Pitting & Crevice Corrosion Resistance: Added Molybdenum (2.0% – 3.0%) protects welds against halide and chloride attack in aggressive chemical environments.
- Self-Detaching Slag & Minimal Spatter: Fast-freezing slag contracts upon cooling, peeling away effortlessly without leaving burn marks or requiring heavy post-weld grinding.
- All-Position Arc Stability: Smooth spray transfer allows operators to maneuver between flat seams and vertical-up joints without puddle sagging or edge undercut.
