E70C-6M metal-cored welding wire combines the efficiencies of solid (GMAW) wires with high productivity rates of flux-cored (FCAW) wires-low fume generation rates, high efficiencies, no slag to clean or remove-with all the advantages cored wires have over solid wires-no “cold lap” or lack of sidewall fusion, pure spray achievement with 75-80% argon/balance carbon dioxide, faster travel speeds for a given fillet size.  E70C-6M is well suited to applications where higher manganese and silicon levels are essential, such as in the presence of heavy mill scale or mild contaminants, or when improved wetting of the weld bead is desired.  This product excels in general purpose welding, but is equally superior in higher demand situations as in heavier sheet metal fabrication, structural work, pipe welding and welding of hot water heaters.
