General purpose maintenance and repair electrode for welding Low carbon steels in any position. Superior fit-up, assembly and TAC rod for field repair work. Operates on most AC or DC welding machines, even low voltage. Features Touch strike and restrike characteristics. Ideal for thin sheets, plates, angle iron beams or pipes.
The MG Welding Electrode 80T AC Plus produces consistently great, clean welds with minimal splatter.Its strong arc penetration makes it ideal for heavy-duty industrial applications. While the price point may be slightly higher than similar products on the market the quality and performance of these electrodes makes it a worthwhile investment in Industrial and Scientific settings..
Pros
Produces high-quality welds with excellent bead appearance and penetration.
Cons
Requires a higher welding current than other electrodes, which can result in increased power consumption and heat buildup.
I gave this stick to try, now I'll move on to the electrode. Nice looking welds, durable and easy to remove slag. You can also use dc+ or dc- depending on what you want from the rod.
