Take your TIG welding projects to the next level with our ER70S-2 Mild Steel TIG Rods. Sized at a substantial 5/32" (4.0mm), these rods are perfect for tackling thicker steel sections where you need to lay down metal smoothly and efficiently. Whether you are repairing heavy equipment, working on a custom automotive frame, or practicing your pipe welding technique, these rods deliver the performance you need.
What makes the ER70S-2 special? It's all about the "Triple Deoxidizers." If you've ever struggled with porosity (those annoying little bubbles in your weld) because the metal wasn't perfectly clean, this rod is your solution. The added Aluminum, Titanium, and Zirconium in the wire help pull impurities out of the puddle, allowing you to get a solid, crack-resistant weld even if the base metal has a bit of rust or mill scale on it. It's often called the "problem solver" for mild steel TIG welding.
Packaged in a convenient 10lb tube, these cut lengths are easy to handle and store. The 36-inch length is standard for manual TIG welding, giving you plenty of reach. The 5/32" diameter is ideal for higher amperage settings, helping you get good penetration on thicker joints without burning through your filler too quickly. Achieve professional-looking beads with excellent ductility and strength—perfect for everything from structural repairs to artistic metalwork.
