90470S31/16 - Can-Arc ER70S-3 Solid MIG Wire Drum 1/16 Inch

Bulk Power for Heavy Fabrication

When your shop is burning wire all day, stopping to swap out 33lb or 44lb spools kills your momentum. The Can-Arc ER70S-3 in the 904 lb drum is the answer for serious production setups. This is a heavy-duty 1/16" wire built for laying down metal fast on thick plate and structural members. If you are running a robotic cell or a hard-automation station, this drum keeps the machine running shift after shift without interruption.

Why choose ER70S-3? If you are working with new, clean steel, S-3 is often a better choice than S-6. It flows smoothly but leaves behind fewer of those annoying glass-like silica islands on the weld face. That means less chipping and grinding before the part moves to the paint booth. The copper coating helps the wire slide through long conduit runs and liners with less friction, saving your feed motor and ensuring a stable arc even at high amperages.

This 1/16" diameter wire is a workhorse for single-pass or multi-pass welds on medium to heavy gauge steel. It runs well with 100% CO2 for deep penetration or Argon/CO2 mixes for a smoother arc and reduced spatter. The drum packaging is designed to pay off smoothly, preventing the tangles and bird-nesting that can happen with bulk wire if not wound correctly.
