ESAB® SHIELD-BRIGHT® 347 was developed for the welding of stainless steel Types 321 and 347. As with all 347 weld metals, for service at temperatures greater than 1000°F (540°C) it can be used in circumstances of lower stress and not under creep conditions. Shield-Bright 347 can also be used for the welding of Types 302, 304 and sometimes 304L stainless steels. Shield-Bright 347 was developed for welding in all positions and performs particularly well in the vertical position with excellent slag removal
