.030" ER-70S-6 Carbon Steel Tig Welding Rod

Specifications:

AWS A5.18 Class ER70S-6


Description:

ER70S-6 contains high levels of manganese and silicon for stronger 

deoxidizing power where stringent cleaning procedures are not possible.

 This wire has been designed to provide X-ray quality porosity-free welds 

and the highest tensile strength (as welded) of the plain carbon steel wires. 

The high silicon content increases the fluidity of the weld pool, creating a 

smoother bead appearance and resulting in minimal post-weld grinding. 

ER70S-6 is excellent where poor fit-ups or rusty and oily plates may be used. 


Applications:

Construction work, tanks, truck bodies, farm implements, pipes, steel castings

 or forgings, shaft build-ups and general shop fabrications.
