West Arco Inox 308L is a covered/stick electrode available from SoldaForce for joining and repairing 304/304L stainless steels when the procedure accepts E308L-16 covered electrodes. This page is intended for industrial purchasing: it helps identify the correct consumable by classification, filler metal family and real application, without confusing it with related catalogue references. The filler metal family is stainless steel and the key difference is its focus on 304/304L stainless steels, unlike Inox 309L when the base metal is dissimilar. Its normative reference is AWS A5.4 E308L-16, used as the consumable classification; the final application must remain tied to the WPS, base metal and required inspection. For an accurate quote, provide required diameter, kilograms or package, quantity, base metal, welding position, joint type, delivery city and whether the work has a qualified procedure. We do not publish amperage, hardness or strength as a single context-free value because they depend on the manufacturer's data sheet, diameter, polarity, storage, preparation, welder technique and actual service conditions.

The values in this table are nominal reference data. Before using them in engineering decisions, review the technical notice at the end of this page and your project's welding procedure specification (WPS).
We dispatch to Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Barranquilla and all of Colombia. Request a quote via WhatsApp for this West Arco Inox 308L, indicating diameter, kilograms or package, application, required brand if applicable and delivery city to confirm availability and price.
The price depends on diameter, package, brand when applicable, quantity and availability. SoldaForce quotes with those details to avoid supplying the wrong consumable.
West Arco Inox 308L corresponds to 304/304L; West Arco Inox 309L is chosen when the joint mixes stainless with carbon steel or requires transition.
Clean bevels, avoid brushes used on black steel and check polarity, diameter and position against the available data sheet.
Send the AWS, ASME or DIN classification, diameter, kilograms or package, required brand when applicable, base metal, welding position, city and whether the project requires a certificate.
It should not be done without reviewing the WPS, base metal, required properties, polarity, heat treatment and approval from the technical owner.
Yes. SoldaForce dispatches to Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Barranquilla and other cities in Colombia depending on availability and carrier.
