Dear Magna Distributors

Magna Industrial Co. Limited is delighted to announce that Magna 309 FC TIG “RootGard”, a versatile flux-cored root pass TIG rod eliminating the need of inert gas purging for pipe welding, is available effective 12 April 2010.

The new Magna 309 is suitable for joining pipes of austenitic steel, carbon steel, low alloy steel, and their combination in oil refineries, petrochemical / petrochemical plants, thermal power stations, etc. Some of Magna 309’s special features & benefits include:

  • Superb penetration to provide back-side protection against oxidation,

  • Excellent scaling resistance at temperatures up to 600°C,

  • X-ray quality weld – verified by radiographic test based on API 1104 standard (test report is available on Magna’s intranet),

  • Approved by American Bureau of Shipping (approval is available on Magna’s intranet).

Magna 309 vs Magna 39

Please note that we have modified Magna 39’s Display Manual & PIM and re-positioned this item as a root pass TIG rod more suitable for “food grade” 316 / 316L types of stainless steel pipes widely used in food & beverage plants and pulp & paper mills. Please download Magna 39’s revised copies of Display Manual & PIM from Magna’s intranet.
