ER70S-6 .045" - 1/16" - 3/32" - 1/8" X 36" Tig Welding Wire rod 10 lb 10 lbs in plastic container ER70S-6 Tig AWS A5.18 ER70S-6 ASME SFA 5.18 ER70S-6 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.
