OVERVIEW

Smooth Running Wire for Professional Results

When you are laying down beads all day, you need a wire that runs smooth and keeps spatter to a minimum. The Bonarc 70S-6 .035" MIG wire is built to make your job easier and your welds look better. Whether you are working on an automotive restoration, building a trailer, or handling general shop repairs, this solid wire delivers a crisp, stable arc that is easy to control. The "S-6" classification means it is loaded with just the right amount of deoxidizers, so if your steel isn't perfectly clean—maybe it has a bit of mill scale or surface rust—this wire will help chew through it and leave you with a solid, clean deposit.

We know that nothing is more frustrating than a wire feeder that jams or surges because of a bad spool. That is why Bonarc ensures this 20kg spool is precision wound. The wire lays flat and feeds out consistently, which means you spend less time fixing bird nests and more time under the hood. The 20kg size is perfect for shop welders who go through a lot of consumables and don't want to be swapping out small spools every few hours.

This .035" wire is the "goldilocks" size for most fabrication jobs. It is thin enough to handle sheet metal without blowing through if you dial your machine down, but it has enough body to lay down serious metal on thicker structural steel brackets and frames. It works great with straight CO2 for deep penetration, or with a C25 (Argon/CO2) mix if you want that classic buzzing sound and a beautiful, flat bead profile.

Why Choose Bonarc 70S-6?

  • Forgiving Arc: Handles imperfect metal preparation better than S-3 wire.
  • Great Appearance: Fluid puddle wets out nicely for professional-looking tie-ins.
  • Reliable Feeding: Precision winding protects your liner and contact tips.

FAQ

For ER70S-6 wire, you can use 100% CO2 for deeper penetration and lower cost, or a mix of 75% Argon / 25% CO2 (C25) for a smoother arc, less spatter, and a flatter bead profile.

This is a solid MIG wire (GMAW). It requires an external shielding gas cylinder to protect the weld pool.

This spool weighs 20kg, which is approximately 44 lbs. Please ensure your wire feeder hub can support this weight and size.

Yes, the ER70S-6 classification indicates high levels of silicon and manganese, which act as deoxidizers. This makes it more forgiving on metal with light rust or mill scale compared to ER70S-3 wire.

Solid MIG wire like this requires DCEP (Direct Current Electrode Positive), also known as Reverse Polarity.

0.035" wire is very versatile. It can typically weld sheet metal as thin as 22 gauge (using short circuit transfer) up to 1/2 inch plate (using spray transfer or multiple passes).

Yes, this wire typically features a copper coating to improve electrical conductivity at the contact tip and prevent corrosion of the wire during storage.
