Smooth arc action with minimal spatter reduces post-weld cleaning

DETAILS

ULTRACORE® 309L provides polished weld bead appearance, smooth arc action with minimal spatter reduces post-weld cleaning and delivers steady consistent wire feeding during welding operations.

Features

  • Precision layer wound winding delivers steady spool payoff and more consistent feeding
  • Smooth arc action with minimal spatter reduces post-weld cleaning
  • Polished weld bead appearance reduces post-weld brushing
