309L rods should do you fine, assuming you're using TIG..

HI Scott,
This is very similar to the alloy spec of the tube I used to use.
You can weld it using ordinary mig wire, providing you get a good fillet in the joint. No special alloy wires needed.
Tig with a special rod will be belt and braces, but a bit OTT.
Cheers,
nev.
Still got that big slobbering dog?

I've bought myself a roll of 308 MIG welding wire to have a go at some stainless welding. Problem is I'm only using a standard MIG welding
gas so it's not going to look pretty.
I need to try stainless to stainless, then stainless to mild. This is for an exhaust so main thing is strong and airtight. Pretty doesn't
matter.
