Available Sizes & Recommended Amperage

Diameter (× 14") Recommended Amperage
3/32" 35 – 85 A
1/8" 80 – 140 A
5/32" 110 – 190 A

Packaging & Storage

Each can is hermetically sealed at the factory to keep electrodes dry and ready to weld. After opening, store the can in a clean, dry environment and reseal between uses to preserve performance.

Recommended amperage ranges are general guidelines; optimal settings vary with base-metal thickness, joint design, and welding position.
