I've been called to weld on a "super' stainless vapor tray that is made from Alloy 20. Problem is, I have no idea what type of rod/filler that this will require.Anyone have a suggestion.

As far as cooling the bit goes,I had a "seasoned hand" at ADM tell me he always used Dawn dish soap and vinegar when drilling/sawing SS. He never gave me a factual reasoning why this worked,but I stll use his "formula" even today. Hope this helps.
Good luck!
