## Description

Lay down clean, corrosion-resistant welds in 304 and 304L stainless without babysitting the filler. This is a matched ER308L wire on a 5kg spool, wound for continuous automatic feeding.

The spool uses a dual-hole mounting design that drops straight onto the MetalFab's wire feeder, so the machine draws wire on its own instead of you feeding by hand mid-weld. Fewer interruptions on long seams, and no re-seating the spool between passes.

ER308L is the low-carbon grade, which is what keeps chromium carbides from forming at the grain boundaries and undercutting corrosion resistance in the heat-affected zone. Combined with a low melting point and minimal spatter, it produces bright weld points and tidy bead formation — less grinding afterwards.

### Features

- Feeds automatically through the MetalFab's wire feeder, thanks to the dual-hole spool design — no manual feeding, no re-seating between passes.
- Holds up in marine, food-grade and chemical environments, thanks to the low-carbon ER308L composition that resists intergranular corrosion.
- Cuts post-weld cleanup, with minimal spatter and bright, evenly formed beads straight off the torch.
- No flux residue to scrub off and nothing toxic or odorous released while welding — the wire is entirely flux-free.
- Keeps long jobs running on one spool at 5kg — suited to fabrication runs, repair work, automotive, architectural and marine jobs.
- Genuine xTool Selected consumable, so it behaves the way the MetalFab's built-in welding presets expect it to.
