This E71T-1 gas-shielded flux-cored electrode is engineered for high deposition, all-position welding with exceptionally easy out-of-position performance. Its fast-freezing slag system allows operators to maintain high deposition rates without sacrificing weld quality, even on vertical or overhead welds. Designed for use with 100% CO2 shielding gas, it delivers strong arc stability, flat bead appearance, and excellent performance on surfaces with light rust, mill scale, or primer.
- High Deposition Rates β achieve up to 10 lbs/hr deposition out-of-position
- Flat Bead Appearance β fast-freezing slag supports smooth, flat bead profiles for increased productivity
- Wide Operating Range β allows welding in all positions with a single machine setting
- Minimal Pre-Weld Cleaning β performs well over light rust, mill scale, and primer
- Select packaging and diameters available meeting Buy America & American Iron & Steel (AIS) standards
