The Fabricator - Sample Issue

Mechanical components
Small-spool welding electrodes

Select-Arc Inc. offers new literature that features its carbon steel, self-shielded, flux-cored Select 700GS welding electrode. This wire is available in 2-lb. blister packs ( 10 per box), 2-lb. spools ( 18 per box), and 10-lb. spools ( 4 per box).

The color flyer explains that the

wire’s arc transfer is smooth and stable with almost no spatter. This soft arc transfer minimizes burn-through on thin-gauge material, and the slag system enables the electrode to weld in all positions.

The ability of the wire to weld without a shielding gas adds to its

portability, since there is no cylinder to move.

The wire is suitable for single-pass, high-speed welds on sheet metal up to ³⁄ 16 in. thick, especially galvanized, aluminized, or other coated steels.
