Regarding your second question, â308â is a particular type of stainless steel. It is typically used to make welding electrodes and used to join common types of austenitic stainless steels, such as 301, 302, 304 and 305. The âHâ and âLâ designators indicate a specific composition of the electrode.his is particularly helpful with stainless steel, as it tends to have more of a sluggish weld bead than carbon steel. Seventeen type electrodes produce a flatter bead profile than the other two types and are often used for flat and horizontal position welding. However, electrode sizes of 5/32 in.
