QuMed4430 is the molybdenum-alloyed austenite: EN ISO 14343-A G/W 19 12 3 L Si · AWS SFA-5.9 ER316LSi (filler material no.: 1.4430). Compared with the 18/8 standard it adds 2.6 % molybdenum — and that shifts the corrosion resistance exactly where chromium alone is no longer enough: into chloride-bearing media.Molybdenum inhibits pitting. That is why QuMed4430 is the wire for apparatus in the chemical and food industries. Service range −196 °C to 400 °C, low carbon (C 0.02 %) and therefore resistant to intercrystalline corrosion.Recommended base materials1.4401, 1.4404 — the CrNiMo standard steels (316 / 316L)1.4571 — titanium-stabilised (316Ti)1.4580, 1.4583 — niobium-stabilised variantsTypical applicationsApparatus and components in the chemical industryFood industry — vessels, lines, fittingsTextile and fuel industriesCorrosion-resistant build-up weldingJoints on stainless and heat-resistant steelsProperties and advantages2.6 % molybdenum — considerably higher pitting resistance than the 18/8 standardLow carbon (C 0.02 %) and therefore resistant to ICService range −196 °C to 400 °CWeld metal: Re 430 MPa · Rm 650 MPa · A 32 %Bobbin form: K125, K250, K80, MA125, SH253 — wire weight 100 g–500 g, Ø 0,2 mm – 0,8 mm.

QuFe50 is the niobium-stabilised CrNiMo austenite for chemical and plant engineering: 1.4576 · ER318Si (19 12 3 Nb Si).The niobium ties up the carbon and thereby makes the weld metal resistant to intergranular corrosion — even without solution annealing after welding. Together with the molybdenum this gives the combination that vessels, piping and apparatus in chloride-bearing media need.
