EN 10088-1: 1.4509 (X2CrTiNb18)
Werkstoff Nr.: 1.4509
Description and applications*
Ferritic stainless steel welding wire with low carbon content and 18% Cr, double stabilized with Nb and Ti.
Due to its stabilization, this grade is fully ferritic at all temperatures, therefore reducing formation of martensite. Low interstitial content has a beneficial effect
on the mechanical and corrosion properties.
Outstanding feeding, welding and flow characteristics. Very good resistance to corrosion and thermal fatigue (typical resistance up to 900°C).
Mainly designed for welding and surfacing of exhaust systems in the automotive industry.

Marking
Each filler rod for GTAW welding is durably marked with an identification traceable to the unique product type. Welding filler materials wound on spools
or in coils are durably marked on the coil or spool with an identification traceable to the unique product type. The outside of each unit package is suitably labelled with at minimum the following data: grade, diameter, heat, lot no., classifications.
Customized labels are available upon request.
Lot classification
All our productions fulfil the Class S3 requirements acc. to EN ISO 14344.
