Kyaw Stainless, a well-known manufacturer and supplier in Naypyidaw, Myanmar, has been manufacturing high-quality AWS Class ER385 MIG and TIG Filler Welding Wires and Rods intended for welding super austenitic stainless steels. They offer superior corrosion resistance in aggressive chemical and acid media, such as seawater and chloride media. Kyaw Stainless provides accurate composition, smooth feeding, and consistent weld integrity. ER385 is the best product to use where maximum corrosion resistance is required, for example, chemical processing, desalination, and marine uses. The excellent weldability and strength of the product make it the best solution for critical stainless steel fabrications.
ER385 filler wires consist of chromium (19–21%), nickel (24–26%), molybdenum (4–5%), and minimal carbon (<0.03%) with equally adjusted levels of manganese and silicon. The weld metal contains tensile strength of about 600 MPa, yield strength of 400 MPa, and elongation of about 35%. The composition provides superior resistance to pitting, crevice, and stress corrosion cracking in chloride-bearing environments. ER385 has superior mechanical stability and toughness even after prolonged exposure to high temperature and corrosive media and is therefore ideal for severe industrial conditions.
