What Are TIG Welding Rods?
TIG Rod is used in Tungsten Inert Gas welding, where a non-consumable Tungsten Electrode carries the arc, and TIG Wire is used to supply the filler metal. TIG Wire is a consumable to the process.
These are a pound (1lb) of 36" Mild Steel TIG Rods with 3/32" Diameter, AWS Classification
ER70S2 is a premium TIG wire for welding on all grades of mild and carbon steels, producing quality welds with minimal porosity. It is a triple deoxidized wire (Zirconium, Titanium, and Aluminum) making it an excellent choice for welding over rust and mill scale. This wire is available in 36-inch lengths and embossed on both ends for easy identification.
