• Stainless steel is a family of iron-based alloys that contain a minimum of approximately 11% chromium
• The chromium oxide layer creates resistance to corrosion and staining, as well as providing heat-resistant properties.
• As stainless steel is hygienic, low maintenance and has aesthetic appeal it is rarely coated.
• Different types of stainless steel include the elements carbon, nitrogen, aluminium, silicon, titanium, nickel, copper, selenium, niobium, and molybdenum.
• There are four categories of stainless steel:
• Austenitic stainless steel
• Ferritic stainless steel
• Martenitic stainless steel
• Duplex stainless steel
• Typical applications range from installations in the pharma/chemical industries to offshore and from food applications to road tankers and more.
What welding gas is required for welding stainless steel?
Pure argon or argon/carbon dioxide mixtures are commonly used for MIG/MAG welding stainless steel. Additional benefits can be gained from the inclusion of helium into the mixture. For TIG welding stainless steel a small addition of hydrogen reduces surface oxidisation. Use our interactive welding gas selector to identify the most suitable gas for your welding application.
