Washington Alloy, TC 70S-6 01, Welding Wire, ER70S-6, 0.023 in, Carbon Steel, 80,380 psi, 66,587 psi

ER70S-6 contains high levels of manganese and silicon for stronger deoxidizing power where stringent cleaning procedures are not possible. This wire has been designed to provide X-ray quality porosity-free welds and the highest tensile strength (as welded) of the plain carbon steel wires. The high silicon content increases the fluidity of the weld pool, creating a smoother bead appearance and resulting in minimal post-weld grinding. ER70S-6 is excellent where poor fit-ups or rusty and oily plates may be used
