flux cored STAINLESS STEEL welding wire e316LT1-1

E316LT1-1 is a gas-shielded stainless steel flux-cored wire designed for welding 316/316L austenitic stainless steels. With low carbon content and high molybdenum, it delivers exceptional resistance to chloride-induced corrosion, pitting, and stress corrosion cracking, making it ideal for demanding environments such as chemical processing, marine engineering, and food production. The flux system, combined with shielding gas, ensures smooth all-position welding, minimal spatter, and consistent bead appearance.

Standards: AWS A5.22 E316LT1-1


  • Manufactured in modern Chinese facilities with consistent quality
  • Mass production capacity for bulk orders
  • Flexible FCL/LCL ocean shipping options
  • Samples available upon request
  • Low Carbon Content

The weld metal features low carbon content and a balanced amount of ferrite, which enhances resistance to hot cracking.

  • Excellent Corrosion Resistance

Formulated with molybdenum, E316LT1-1 provides better resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chemical attack in harsh environments such as marine and chemical processing.

  •  Excellent Weldability

The wire produces a stable and smooth arc, lower spatter and easy slag removal which ensures easy handling and high-quality welds.It also delivers smooth wire feeding and efficient welding performance.
