Technical Features
- High manganese and silicon content: Provides superior cleaning action on rusty or dirty steel, expanding usable base metal conditions without requiring extensive surface preparation.
- All-position copper-coated wire: Copper coating enhances feedability and arc performance, supporting consistent wire delivery across welding positions.
- High silicon formulation for weld puddle fluidity: Produces a smoother bead appearance, reducing the time and effort required for post-weld grinding.
- ER70S-6 classification at 70,000 PSI tensile strength: Meets established wire standards for structural integrity on carbon steel sheet and plate applications.
- DCEP polarity: Compatible with standard MIG welding machine configurations for direct current electrode positive operation.
- Requires CO2 or Argon/CO2 shielding gas: Shielding gas is not included and must be sourced separately prior to use.
Applications
- Auto body repair and sheet metal fabrication
- Butt and fillet welding of carbon steel sheet and plate
- Industrial, farm, and construction equipment fabrication
- Automotive equipment repair and assembly
