Review on Forney 30301 Welding 32 Inch 1 Pound by Jeff Grindley

Probably the most useful electrodes I've ever bought. I often weld thin mild steel tubing that is usually lightly rusted or covered with mill scale. He takes it easy on himself, which is a big advantage when it comes to preparation. Thin mild steel tubing is structurally strong, cheap, but one of the most difficult materials to weld. With a tube wall thickness of .060, it is almost impossible not to blow through the billet. I have found these rods to be the most forgiving in this aspect while still being fully penetrating. I can also make much longer seams without letting the part cool down. I run them on a non-digital welder so I can't tell you the exact current but it's somewhere between 58 and 63. I can also leave them in my tool box for a couple of weeks and they work like new. No moisture sensitivity and storage restrictions.
