the worst cable I have ever used and I mean ever. the flux core already spatters a lot, but this wire takes it to a whole new level, it's worse than 6018 rods. welds spatter and spatter, they lie like chewing gum. I would stay away from this cable at all costs. I was in a dilemma wrestling with wire so I was stuck with about 5lbs of junk, a grinder and paint which made me the welder I'm not. couldn't be more true to this wire
