Böhler Thermanit 22/09 ER2209 Duplex TIG Welding Rod

Description

ER2209 TIG rod for 2205 duplex stainless steel

Böhler Thermanit 22/09 is a solid TIG rod of type ER2209 / W 22 9 3 N L designed for welding 2205 duplex stainless steel. Böhler Welding states resistance to intercrystalline corrosion and to wet corrosion up to 475 °F, good resistance to stress corrosion cracking in chloride and hydrogen-sulphide bearing environments, and high resistance to pitting from the Cr and Mo contents. It is used for joining and surfacing with matching and similar duplex steels and cast grades, so it is a rod for duplex piping, pressure vessels and heat exchangers in oil, gas, desalination and chemical plants.

Duplex welding practice and selection

Duplex stainless steel keeps its balance of ferrite and austenite only when heat input, interpass temperature and cooling rate stay within the procedure window, and the data sheet warns that attention must be paid to embrittlement susceptibility of the parent metal. Argon back purging, strict cleanliness and a PMI check on finished welds are normal. For austenitic grades use

Thermanit GE-316L.

or

Thermanit JE-308L.

. For submerged arc welding of duplex,

Marathon 805.

lists the Thermanit 22/09 SAW wire among its typical combinations.

Handling and what to confirm

Store duplex rods clean and dry, apply argon back purging on the root, and monitor interpass temperature. Welds should be tested for ferrite balance and, in corrosive service, for corrosion resistance if the specification asks for it. Confirm diameter, pack size, certificate level and any NACE or ASTM A923 test requirement when ordering.

About brand

Böhler Welding is the welding consumables brand of voestalpine Böhler Welding, part of the voestalpine group, with a portfolio that covers stick electrodes, TIG rods, solid wires, gas-shielded and self-shielded flux-cored wires and submerged-arc wires and fluxes. The company states more than 100 years of experience. Seven Star LLC, an independent supplier in Muscat, lists Böhler Welding consumables and welding machines, including pipeline electrodes, and sources Böhler Welding consumables for fabricators and pipeline contractors.

Böhler Welding product groups

Beyond the consumables above, Böhler Welding lists strip cladding, wire arc additive manufacturing, metal powders, arc spraying cored wires, ceramic weld backing, brazing consumables and welding automation such as orbital welding and collaborative robots. The pipeline range includes cellulosic FOX CEL electrodes and basic vertical-down FOX BVD electrodes for large-diameter line pipe.

Ordering Böhler Welding consumables: what we need

Give the product name, the AWS or EN classification, the diameter and length, and the packaging you need. For pipeline electrodes also state the pipe grade, wall thickness, welding position and whether sour-service test values are required, because the Böhler Welding data sheets note that some test values are available on request.
