Type 441 alloy has very good resistance to progressive scaling in both continuous and cyclic oxidizing laboratory test environments. Type 441 is weldable using traditional tungsten inert gas and metal arc inert gas procedures commonly used with stainless steel. When a filler wire is required, a matching Type 441 chemistry electrode can be used with the alloy to maintain compatible corrosion and oxidation resistance in the weld area. It is suggested that hydrogen not be mixed with inert gas (unless post weld annealing is planned) because ferritic stainless steels are subject to hydrogen embrittlement.
