| Lincoln ER70S-6 | ER70S-6 | | For TIG welding, Lincoln® ER70S-6 has high levels of silicon and manganese to be used on slightly contaminated base materials. Higher levels of silicon and manganese allow for better puddle fluidity and excellent wetting action. |
| Lincoln ER70S-2 | ER70S-2 | | Triple deoxidized wire containing zirconium, titanium, and aluminum in addition to silicon and manganese. Produces x-ray quality welds over most surface conditions. Recommended for TIG welding on all grades of mild steel. |
| Stainless Steel |
| Lincoln ER308/308L | ER308IER308L | DC- | Most frequently used for base metals of similar composition. The dual classification ensures the maximum carbon content is 0.03% to increase resistance to intergranular corrosion. |
| Lincoln ER309/309L | ER309IER309L | DC- | Used for welding similar alloys in wrought or cast form. Occasionally used for welding 18-8 base metals when severe corrosion conditions exist, and at times, welding dissimilar steels. Intergranular corrosion resistance is maximized by keeping the carbon content at or below 0.03%. |
| Lincoln ER316/316L | ER316IER316L | DC- | Used for welding similar alloys (containing approximately 2% molybdenum). Also used for high temperature service applications. The maximum carbon content is maintained at or below 0.03% to increase resistance to intergranular corrosion. Can be used for welding molybdenum-bearing austenitic alloys containing 0.03% maximum carbon. |
