What is the difference between Hobart ER316 and ER316L MIG welding wire?

Hobart ER316 and ER316L MIG welding wire differ primarily in carbon content. ER316L has a lower carbon content (0.03% max) compared to ER316 (0.08% max), which reduces the risk of intergranular corrosion in welded joints. Both are classified under ER316/316L and have similar mechanical properties: as-welded yield strength of 58 ksi and tensile strength of 86 ksi. The low-carbon version is preferred for applications involving corrosive environments or where post-weld heat treatment is not possible.

What package sizes are available for Hobart ER316 MIG welding wire?

Hobart ER316 MIG welding wire, such as SKU 54JK73, is supplied on a 30 lb spool with a 0.035 in diameter. It is classified as ER316/316L and has an as-welded yield strength of 58 ksi and tensile strength of 86 ksi. This wire is used for welding 316 and 316L stainless steels in applications requiring corrosion resistance. The 30 lb spool is suitable for larger welding projects where extended run times are needed.
