Deoxidized Copper MIG (GMAW) welding alloy is used to weld high copper content base metals where good electrical conductivity exists. This alloy produces trouble free welds that are a good color match to copper. Deox copper can also be used to weld copper-to-steel. Conforms to ANSI/AWS A 5.7 & ASME SFA-5.7 ERCu.
