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 1/8" Diameter, ER70S-6 AWS Classification
For TIG welding, ER70S-6 has high levels of silicon and manganese to be used on slightly contaminated base materials. Higher levels of silicon and manganese allow for better puddle fluidity and excellent wetting action.
Features
- High levels of silicon and manganese for use on slightly contaminated base materials

- Ink jet printing identification on entire length of electrode
- Q2 Lot – certificate showing actual deposit chemistry and mechanical properties per lot available online.
Applications
- Repairs on a variety of mild and low alloy steel
- Small diameter pipe and tubing
- Sheet metal applications
- Root pass pipe welding
