Description
Solid MIG Welding Wire for Carbon Steel Fabrication – 0.8mm, 15kg Spool
This solid MIG welding wire for carbon steel fabrication is ideal for 490N/mm² tensile strength applications. With excellent arc stability and a smooth bead finish, it’s designed for thin plates and multi-position welding using CO₂ or Ar+CO₂ gas. The 0.8mm wire diameter ensures precision control and consistent feed performance during long welding sessions.
Thanks to its high manganese-silicon content, the wire enhances deoxidation and results in spatter-free, clean welds. Packaged in a 15kg vacuum-sealed spool, this wire is a trusted solution for industries like shipbuilding, structural steel, and automotive.
Why choose MIG welding wire for carbon steel?
