How to Increase Productivity with Self-Shielded Flux-Cored Wire
What if you could obtain high quality welds outdoors without the productivity slowdowns associated with changing stick electrodes? Self-shielded flux-cored wires allow welders to continue working without interruption. These wires have changed and improved from what was available several years ago, but you must understand how to select the best wire for the job.

Wire Feeding Issues? Consider These Common Causes First
Though welding operators often assume that the filler metal is the source of a wire feeding problem, it’s important to consider other common causes before taking any corrective steps. Don’t assume that cleaning lube off the wire or adding more lube is the answer. While there are many potential causes to poor wire feeding, many of them have simple solutions.
