Welding Electrodes & Wires

Welding electrodes and wires are the consumables that decide weld quality before you strike an arc. This range covers MIG welding wire in solid, flux-cored and metal-cored types, TIG filler rods, stick electrodes from general purpose 6013s through to low hydrogen and cast iron grades, gouging carbons, tungsten electrodes, submerged arc wire and flux, and brazing alloys with matching fluxes. Spool and pack sizes run from 0.9kg handfuls to 15kg spools and pallet lots for production shops, with CIGWELD and UNIMIG well represented throughout.

How do I choose the right welding consumable?

Work through three questions in order:

• Process — MIG takes wire on a spool, TIG takes cut-length rods, stick takes flux-coated electrodes.
• Parent metal — match the filler to the base material: mild steel, stainless, aluminium, cast iron or a hardfacing overlay.
• Conditions — positional work, outdoor wind and code-quality joints each point to specific classifications, such as gasless flux-cored wire on site or low hydrogen electrodes on high-restraint joints.
