ER70S-6 MIG Wire

ER70S-6 MIG Wire is the most common type of welding consumable for welding mild steel and these wires are designed to meet minimum tensile strength requirements of 70,000 psi. This wire incorporates the proper deoxidizer to absorb oxygen so that it vaporizes into the arc or forms as scale oxides. ER70S-6 is better for creating a smooth transition from the weld to the base metal, also known as wash-in or tie-in. Better wash-in may be a requirement in applications subject to fatigue. ER70S-6 wire can provide better wetting at the weld toe when compared to an ER70S-3 wire.
A quality MIG wire is critical in robotic welding applications.
