Inweld 308LSI is used for welding austenitic stainless steel types such as AISI 301, 302, 304, 305, 308, as well
as the low carbon versions of these grades. In certain, less critical applications it can also be used on 321 and
347. The lower carbon content of Inweld 308LSI reduces the possibility of inter-granular carbide precipitation.
The higher silicon content allows for faster welding speeds than 308 or 308L due to greater wetting out of the
weld metal. Weld deposits have a smoother bead appearance. Inweld 308LSi is suitable for use in many cryogenic
applications.
