ED022661 - Lincoln Outershield 71M 1.6mm Flux-Cored Wire 25lb Spool

Experience Smoother Welds with Outershield 71M

When your project demands high-quality structural welds and you need a wire that just runs smooth, Lincoln Electric's Outershield 71M is the professional's choice. This 1.6mm (1/16") flux-cored wire is built to make your job easier, whether you are welding in the shop or out in the field. Known for its "operator appeal," it delivers a stable, soft arc that feels like a spray transfer, giving you excellent control over the weld puddle.

Say goodbye to constant liner issues and feeding problems. Thanks to Lincoln's rod-based manufacturing, this wire is stiffer and feeds more reliably than standard folded wires. This means fewer interruptions and less frustration when you're in the middle of a long bead. It is also incredibly versatile; you can run it with straight CO2 for deep penetration and cost savings, or switch to an Argon/CO2 mix for an even smoother arc and cleaner finish. The slag peels off easily, often curling up on its own, so you spend less time chipping and grinding and more time welding.

This 25lb spool is perfect for medium to heavy-duty fabrication jobs. Whether you are working on shipbuilding, heavy equipment repair, or general structural steel, the Outershield 71M provides the confidence you need. It handles vertical-up welds beautifully and produces X-ray quality results with minimal spatter. Upgrade your welding game with a wire that works as hard as you do.
