Product Details
The E71T-GS self flux-core welding wire for mild steel is designed for all-position welding and excels in single pass applications with high travel speed. This self-shielded wire, denoted by its pink color coding on the label, requires no shielding gas, making it particularly suitable for outdoor use, where wind can affect gas coverage and cause porosity. The specifications include a weight of 10 lbs. (4.54 kg), a diameter of .035 inches, and a tensile strength of 79,000 psi. It operates on DCEN straight polarity and produces moderate to low spatter, with the option to reduce spatter further by using an argon/CO2 mix. This wire runs hotter than solid wires, enhancing its performance in various welding conditions, including on rusty, dirty, and painted materials.
