Custom 465 Welding Rods are high-strength stainless steel filler metals designed for critical applications requiring excellent toughness, corrosion resistance, and high tensile strength. These rods are made from martensitic, age-hardenable alloy steel containing nickel, chromium, and other hardening elements. At Parag Metals, we offer Custom 465 Welding Rods that meet demanding industry standards for strength, weldability, and consistent performance.
Together with trace metals for hardening, these rods normally include about 11% chromium and 11% nickel. They come in conventional lengths up to 1000mm and diameters between 1.2mm and 4.0mm. The rods conform to AMS 5828 and other relevant aerospace specifications. They are perfect for TIG and MIG techniques, because they offer exceptional weld strength with little distortion or cracking. The rods also exhibit strong resistance to stress corrosion cracking and pitting.
