Hobart HB-28 ER70S-6 .024" MIG Wire - 2lb Spool

Hobart HB-28: The Professional's Choice for Thin Gauge Welding

When it comes to automotive restoration, body work, or light fabrication, precision is everything. The Hobart HB-28 .024-inch MIG welding wire is designed to give you that precision control. This 2-pound spool is the perfect companion for your garage or shop welder, offering industrial-grade performance in a package size that makes sense for project-based work. If you have ever struggled with blowing holes through thin sheet metal or fighting against sputtering arcs on dirty steel, the HB-28 is the solution you have been looking for.

What sets this wire apart is its ER70S-6 classification, which means it is loaded with high levels of deoxidizers like manganese and silicon. In the real world, this means the wire acts as a cleaning agent while you weld. It is forgiving enough to handle steel that isn't perfectly prepped, cutting through light rust, oil, and mill scale to deliver a strong, non-porous weld. For auto body professionals and hobbyists alike, this forgiveness is a game-changer, saving you time on prep work and ensuring your repairs hold up over time.

The 0.024-inch diameter is specifically tailored for thin metals, effectively welding from 24 gauge up to 18 gauge. It produces a crisp, stable arc with minimal spatter, keeping your cleanup time to a minimum. The copper coating on the wire ensures smooth feeding through your machine's liner and contact tip, preventing frustrating bird-nesting or feed jams. Whether you are building custom farm implements, fixing a fender, or working on general light steel repairs, the Hobart HB-28 delivers a smooth, professional bead that makes you look like a master welder. Compatible with both straight CO2 and Argon/CO2 mixes, it adapts to your setup to provide excellent wetting and a flat, clean finish.
