Dual Shield 70 ULTRA PLUS
Dual Shield 70 Ultra Plus is an all-position wire that is uniquely designed to provide high deposition, outstanding all position performance and a fume emission rate approaching that of solid wires. It is optimized for use with 90% Ar/10% CO2 shielding but works well with mixes ranging from 75% Ar/25% CO2 to 95% Ar/5% CO2. Among the outstanding features of Dual Shield 70 Ultra Plus are a very wide operating window, very high out of position deposition rates (vertical up and overhead at over 12 lb/hr), and welds that are virtually spatter free. Dual Shield 70 Ultra Plus may be used in a variety of applications including railcar, automotive, heavy equipment, and general structural steel fabrication. It is especially recommended in applications where reduction of welding fume is a priority.
