This paper investigated the influence of filler materials such as E308L and ENiCu-7 utilized in the GTA welded AISI 304 with respect to mechanical and corrosion properties. It was found that E308L had shown better tensile strength and corrosion resistance as compared to ENiCu-7. A comparative analysis had been made on the different regions of the weldment subjected to cyclic air oxidation at 700°C. The corrosion products were examined using XRD and SEM/EDAX analysis.
