The ER70S-6 is the industry-standard choice for high-quality TIG welding on mild and carbon steels. This 3.2mm (1/8") diameter rod is formulated with increased levels of manganese (Mn) and silicon (Si), which serve as critical deoxidizers in the weld puddle. When welding carbon steel, oxygen from the atmosphere or surface contaminants can cause porosity and weak bonds. The scavengers in ER70S-6 react with these impurities to form a fluid slag that floats to the surface, leaving behind a clean, sound weld deposit. This makes ER70S-6 significantly more forgiving than ER70S-2 or ER70S-3 when welding on base metals that haven't been cleaned to white metal.
Weldability and Performance
Welders will appreciate the excellent wetting action of this rod. The puddle is fluid and responsive, allowing for easy manipulation and
