409Nb

Description

Nb stabilised solid ferritic stainless steel wire rod
These wire rods deposit a ferritic stainless weld metal which is used to weld Type 409 and 409Ti base materials. The addition of niobium improves corrosion resistance, increases strength at high temperature, promotes a ferritic micro-structure. Niobium is used instead of titanium because oxidation losses across the arc generally are lower. Not recommended for multi-pass applications. Consumables used for welding similar 12% Cr ferritic steels in application such as catalytic converters and mufflers.

Description

Application

The 409Nb alloy is distinguished from type ER409 by the addition of niobium, which reacts to form niobium carbide (NbC). This feature prevents the formation of chromium carbides (Cr3C2), significantly improving corrosion resistance. Furthermore, niobium increases high-temperature resistance and promotes an optimal ferritic microstructure. The consumables associated with this alloy are ideal for welding 12% Cr ferritic steels, used in critical applications such as manifolds, silencers, catalytic converters, and piping. For optimal results, it is recommended to adopt low heat input welding procedures. However, this material is not recommended for applications requiring multiple welding passes.
