Cigweld Verticor 308LT MIG Wire 15kg

The Cigweld Verticor 308LT MIG Wire 15kg is a premium E308LT1 gas shielded stainless steel flux cored wire developed for all positional welding of 19Cr/9Ni stainless steel grades including AISI 301, 302, 304 and 304L. Designed for high deposition rate welding and smooth operator control, Verticor 308LT delivers consistent arc stability, low spatter levels and excellent weld appearance across a wide range of stainless fabrication applications.

This rutile type flux cored wire is ideal for fabrication shops requiring reliable performance in flat, horizontal-vertical, vertical-up and overhead positions. The fast-freezing slag system provides outstanding weld pool control, producing smooth mitre to slightly convex fillet welds with minimal clean-up required.

Designed for 300 Series Stainless Steel

Verticor 308LT is specifically formulated for welding:

• AISI 301
• AISI 302
• AISI 304
• AISI 304L

The extra-low carbon weld deposit helps minimise the risk of carbide precipitation and intergranular corrosion when welding low carbon stainless steel grades. This makes it suitable for general stainless fabrication in structural, food-grade and light chemical applications.

Mechanical Performance

Typical weld metal properties provide strong and reliable performance, including:

• Tensile strength up to 580 MPa
• Excellent elongation for ductility
• Smooth arc transfer characteristics
• Low spatter and easy slag removal

These properties make Verticor 308LT a dependable choice for stainless fabrication requiring both productivity and weld integrity.

Shielding Gas & Operation

Verticor 308LT is formulated for use with:

• Welding grade CO₂
• Argon + 18–25% CO₂

It operates on DC electrode positive (DCEP) and is suitable for semi-automatic FCAW applications.

Available Size

• 1.2mm – 15kg Spool (Part No. 722889)

Supplied vacuum sealed in moisture-resistant packaging to maintain weld quality and performance.

For fabricators looking for a high deposition stainless flux cored wire for 304 and 304L stainless steels, the Cigweld Verticor 308LT 15kg spool delivers smooth arc performance, strong mechanical properties and reliable all positional capability.
