DETAILS
W1060 (R45) is a general purpose, copper coated, TIG (GTAW) low carbon steel alloy that is widely used on mild steel. It offers good ductility and machinability.
Features
- Copper coated, low carbon steel, rod for oxy-fuel welding of mild steel
- Good ductility and machinability
- Produces high quality welds that are ductile and porosity-free
- No flux required but puddling of the molten metal will bring any scale or impurities to the surface
- Can be used on steel plate, sheet and pipe where high strength is not required
- Typical applications include welding low carbon steel, automotive repair and ornamental art
- Weld on clean base metal to ensure the best results
- Marked with model number on each end for easy identification after use
- Conforms to AWS A5.2, R45
- Conveniently packaged for point-of-purchase display
