Application
ER347SI is a columbium stabilized stainless steel welding wire used to weld Types 321 and 347. Addition of columbium reduces the possibility of chromium carbide precipitation and consequent inter-granular corrosion. ER347SI is recommended if the weld metal is to be subjected to high temperatures above 750ºF.

Deposited Chemical Composition % (Typical)
C = 0.04 Mo = 0.30 P = 0.025
Cr = 20.00 Mn = 1.50 S = 0.015
Ni = 9.50 Si = 0.80 Cu = 0.10
Nb = 0.40

 

Mechanical Properties (R.T.) 
Yield Strength 88,000psi
Tensile Strength 58,000psi
Elongation 42%

Deposited All Weld Metal Properties
Data is typical for ER347SI weld metal deposited by Mig using Argon + 2% oxygen as the shielding gas. Data on sub-arc is not presented, as sub-arc is dependent on the type of flux used.

Other shielding Gases may be used for Mig welding. Shielding gases are chosen taking Quality, Cost, and Operability into consideration

Recommended Welding Parameters
SAW “Submerged Arc Welding Process”   Reversed Polarity Suggested
Wire Diameter Amps Volts
3/32 250-450 28-32
1/8 300-500 29-34

Both Agglomerated and fused fluxes can be used for submerged arc welding.
Note: The chemical composition of the flux mainly affects the chemistry of the weld metal and consequently its corrosion resistance and Mechanical properties.
