Description

The KOBELCO PREMIARC™ TG-S308L is a high-purity, solid TIG welding filler rod specifically engineered for low-carbon 18%Cr-8%Ni stainless steels. As an authorized KOBELCO distributor in Malaysia, we provide genuine TG-S308L rods that deliver exceptional corrosion resistance and mechanical integrity for critical stainless steel fabrications.

The TG-S308L is the gold standard for welding Type 304 and 304L stainless steel, offering superior weldability and clean results.

• Optimized for 304L Steel: Formulated specifically for low-carbon 18%Cr-8%Ni stainless steels to ensure maximum service life and resistance to intergranular corrosion.
• Superior Low-Temperature Toughness: Features an impressive typical impact value of 78J at -196°C, making it ideal for cryogenic applications.
• Easy Identification: Each rod is marked with a Red identification color (1st Red) for quick and accurate selection on the job site.
• Excellent Mechanical Properties: Delivers a high tensile strength of 590 MPa and 45% elongation for flexible, durable weld joints.
