ER70C-6M is a carbon steel metal-cored welding wire, gas shielded for single or multi-pass welding. The benefit of this metal-cored (C = Composite) wire is it boasts much higher deposition rates with less fume levels when compared to similar solid wires in its class. This product is shipped in an aluminum vacuum pack, assuring proper diffusible hydrogen. This XTR product also has a deoxidizing arc, so pre-weld work is minimized.

Applications

• XTR 70C-6M has a very smooth arc with mild spatter and mild silicon slag post weld, yielding a savings in labor due to reduced post weld cleanup.
• Intended for building welding (Meets AWS D1.8 seismic lot waiver requirements), shipbuilding, bridges, machineries, vehicles, offshore structures, and general fabrication.
• 70C-6M is also a fast-freezing electrode, so it allows for high-speed applications.
• Proper preheating (122°F~302°F) and interpass temperature must be used to release base metal diffusible hydrogen, which may cause cracking in weld metal when electrodes are used for medium and heavy plates.
• Argon % mixtures may range from 75-95 with balance of CO2.
