SPOOLARC 85

Spoolarc 85 contains moderate levels of deoxidizers and is suitable for many general purpose carbon steel MIG applications. Spoolarc 85 can be used over light rust or light mill scale.

Features

Spoolarc 85 contains more manganese and silicon for greater deoxidation capability when compared to ER70S-3 wire. The higher level of deoxidizers provides for better rust and scale tolerance and it also improves bead wetting. Spoolarc 85 is typically used for applications including welding of farm machinery, material handling equipment, and piping.
