AC/DC 1/8" Welding Electrode, 10Lbs

AC/DC 1/8" Welding Electrode, 10Lbs (Easy Slag Removal, Low Spatter)

This electrode has been designed to operate on almost any AC or DC welding machine even when the open circuit voltage is very low. The special coating protects the weld deposit from adverse conditions normally encountered in maintenance repair welding. Low amperage requirement controls distortion when welding thin sheet metal; spatter is kept to a minimum. Ideal for field repair work and out-of-position welding.

Versatile stick welding rod that works with all stick welding machines, whether AC or DC, inverter or transformer, engine driven or not—everything from the cheapest machine to the top-of-the-line machine. Capable of welding all low ally and mild steel, Messer® MG 80TAC PLUS is a fast-freeze and very forgiving stick welding rod that generates little to no spatter and features excellent bead appearance and super easy slag removal (the slag falls off by itself).

In our opinion, everyone should keep a couple of pounds of this stick welding rod on the truck or in the shop for those tough jobs where nothing else works. An excellent, all position maintenance rod; great for extracting broken bolts or for patching leaks.
