Esab Dual Shield R-70 Ultra E70T-1 Flux-Cored Wire .045

Maximize Productivity with Esab Dual Shield R-70 Ultra

For professional welders seeking a wire that combines speed, ease of use, and reliability, the Esab Dual Shield R-70 Ultra stands out as a top-tier E70T-1 flux-cored wire. This .045-inch diameter wire is optimized for high-deposition welding in the flat and horizontal positions, making it a powerhouse for heavy fabrication shops and manufacturing lines.

The "Ultra" designation signifies Esab's commitment to operator comfort and weldability. This wire produces a remarkably smooth spray-type transfer with minimal spatter, which helps keep nozzles clean and reduces downtime. It also boasts lower fume emission rates compared to traditional flux-cored wires, contributing to a cleaner working environment. The slag coverage is complete and uniform, protecting the weld metal as it cools, yet it removes with minimal effort—often requiring just a light tap.

Key Operational Benefits:

• Mill Scale Tolerance: Aggressive cleaning action allows for welding over moderate rust and scale.
• Cost-Effective Gas: Optimized for 100% CO2, reducing shielding gas costs compared to Argon mixes.
• High Deposition: Allows for faster travel speeds and increased throughput on heavy gauge steel.

This wire is extensively used in the fabrication of earth-moving equipment, railcars, barges, and general structural components. If your project involves long, continuous welds on carbon steel in the flat or horizontal position, the Dual Shield R-70 Ultra provides the performance and consistency required to get the job done right.
