ED037130 - Lincoln UltraCore 308L-17 0.045" Flux-Core Stainless Wire (25lb Spool)

Smooth Arc, Easy Cleanup

Tired of fighting with stubborn slag and erratic arcs when welding stainless? The Lincoln UltraCore® 308L-17 is built to make your life easier under the hood. This 0.045" flux-cored wire runs like a dream, delivering a buttery-smooth arc that feels almost like spraying, even when you are out of position. Whether you are welding flat, horizontal, or tackling a vertical-up joint, the puddle stays controllable and wets out perfectly at the toes, leaving you with a professional-looking bead every time.

The real game-changer with this wire is the slag release. We know that chipping slag off stainless can be a headache, but UltraCore® 308L-17 features a self-peeling slag system. In many cases, the slag lifts off by itself as it cools, or curls up with a light tap, saving you massive amounts of time on cleanup and grinding. It's designed for 304 and 304L grades, giving you that classic shiny stainless finish that customers love.

You also get flexibility with your gas setup. If you want to save money, run it on straight CO2. If you want the absolute smoothest performance, switch to a 75/25 Argon/CO2 mix. Either way, the wire feeds consistently without tangling or bird-nesting, thanks to Lincoln's precision winding. Grab a 25lb spool of ED037130 and experience higher deposition rates and less downtime on your next stainless project.
