flux cored MILD STEEL welding wire e71t-GS
The E71T-GS is a self-shielded flux-cored welding wire designed for welding carbon steels and low-alloy steels. It does not require external shielding gas, making it highly suitable for outdoor and field welding applications, especially in environments where gas shielding may not be feasible. This wire provides the flexibility to perform all-position welding, offering ease of use for thin materials and single-pass welds. It is particularly effective in applications where impact toughness is not a primary concern.
Standards: AWS A5.20 E71T-GS
Requires no external shielding gas, which makes it perfect for outdoor, remote, or windy environments where gas shielding is impractical. It offers smooth arc with little spatter.
Excellent for welding outdoor light structural components and sheet metal ≤1.0mm without such as galvanized sheet.r butt welds, lap joints, corner welds, and fillet welds, as well as semi-automatic welding in situations where impact toughness is not a primary requirement.
