This all-position flux-core wire is self-shielded, making it ideal for work on rusty, dirty and painted material.
Moderate To Low Spatter
This wire produces moderate to low spatter. Using an Argon/CO2 mix will reduce spatter.
Runs Hotter
Forney's E71T-GS Self wire runs hotter than solid wires. This makes it best suited for single pass applications with high travel speed.
Excellent For Outdoor Use
Because this wire does not require shielding gas, it is ideal for outdoor welding. Wires that do require gas run the risk of wind blowing the gas away, ultimately resulting in porosity.
