ER308H
Carbon Content : High Carbon Content (0.04%-0.08%)
Strength : Higher strength at elevated temperature due to its carbon content, suitable for high-temperature service applications
Corrosion Resistance: Slightly reduced compared to ER308L because higher carbon content can lead to sensitization (formation of chromium carbides at grain boundaries)
Applications: Used in applications requiring creep resistance or operation at elevated temperatures, such as in power plants, boilers, and chemical plants.
ER308L
Carbon Content: Low carbon content (<0.03%).
Strength: Lower strength compared to ER308H, especially at high temperatures.
Corrosion resistance: Superior to ER308H because low carbon minimizes the risk of sensitization and intergranular corrosion, especially in as-welded conditions.
Applications: Ideal for applications where corrosion resistance is critical, such as food processing equipment, chemical tanks, and piping systems, used for welding 304L or 304-grade SS, particularly where PWHT is not feasible.
