248000937 - ESAB Dual Shield 7100 LC .045" Flux-Cored Wire E71T-1C/9C

Smooth Running All-Position Flux Core

Tackle your toughest welding jobs with the ESAB Dual Shield 7100 LC. This .045" flux-cored wire is a favorite among professional welders for its incredible "welder appeal"—meaning it runs smooth, bites in deep, and leaves a bead you can be proud of. Whether you are welding flat, horizontal, vertical-up, or overhead, the fast-freezing slag holds the puddle in place, giving you total control over the weld pool even in difficult positions.

One of the biggest advantages of the 7100 LC is its versatility with shielding gas. You can run it on straight CO2 for deep penetration and cost savings, or switch to a 75/25 Argon/CO2 mix for an even smoother arc and less spatter. The slag peels off easily, often curling up on its own, which saves you significant time on cleanup and grinding between passes. It is designed to minimize spatter, keeping your nozzle clean and your workpiece looking professional.

Perfect for heavy-duty projects like fixing heavy equipment, building trailers, or structural steel work, this wire delivers strong, crack-resistant welds. If you need a wire that is forgiving to operate but tough enough for code-quality work, the Dual Shield 7100 LC is the reliable choice for your shop.
