Mild steel tig welding rod - RG60 - 1/8"- 1LB. pack
High-Performance Mild Steel TIG Welding Rod. RG60 TIG welding
rod. AWS: A5.2 grade. Class: RG60.
RG60 provides a higher tensile strength plain Carbon Mild Steel for
general purpose oxy-acetylene welding of Mild and Low Carbon Steels. It
is bare (non Copper-coated) but due to higher levels of manganese and
silicon, no flux is required. RG60 has been designed to provide porosity-
free welds and higher tensile strength (as welded). The higher levels of
Manganese and Silicon increase fluidity of the weld pool, creating a
smoother appearance and resulting in minimal post-weld grinding. Tensile
strength: 67,000 psi (specs call for 60,000 minimum). Elongation is 25%.
