Description

.035" Mild Steel Flux-Core Welding Wire – 2 lb Spool

This self-shielded mild steel welding wire delivers reliable, all-position performance without the need for external shielding gas. Ideal for single-pass applications with high travel speeds, it’s engineered to run hotter than solid wire, making it perfect for quick, efficient welds on clean, rusty, dirty, or painted surfaces. The pink-coded spool ensures easy identification and hassle-free setup, especially in outdoor or windy conditions where gas-shielded wires can suffer porosity issues.

Key Features

  • Self-shielded flux-core design – no external shielding gas required
  • All-position welding capability for flat, horizontal, vertical, and overhead
  • .035 " (0.889 mm) diameter optimized for single-pass, high-speed travel
  • Runs hotter than solid wire for deeper penetration at faster travel rates
  • Moderate to low spatter production; optional Argon/CO₂ mix further reduces spatter
  • Excellent outdoor performance; unaffected by wind or drafts
