Lincoln Electric NR-211-MP Flux-Cored Wire
This spool contains Lincoln Electric ED031448 flux-cored welding wire for self-shielded FCAW processes. The NR-211-MP series uses a 0.03 inch diameter wire on a 1 lb plastic spool. It is classified AWS E71T-11 for carbon steel to carbon steel joining. Operators run it with DCEN polarity for general fabrication and repair tasks.
Upgrade From Solid Wire With External Gas
Switching to this self-shielded flux-cored wire removes the need for a separate shielding gas cylinder and regulator. The jump is worth it when portability matters or when wind makes gas shielding unreliable on site. As-welded tensile strength ranges from 88 to 94 ksi with yield strength between 63 and 69 ksi. Minimum required yield strength is 58 ksi per the AWS classification.
Fits Standard MIG Guns For Flux-Cored Use
The 0.03 inch diameter feeds through common MIG guns equipped with the correct drive rolls and contact tip for flux-cored wire. No external gas solenoid or flow meter is required, freeing up space and setup time. The 1 lb spool suits smaller wire feeders or limited bench space. Buyers needing higher deposition rates or larger spool capacities for continuous production should evaluate other packages.

Questions about this item
What wire diameter does the NR-211-MP spool use?
The wire diameter is .03 inches, matching the .030 designation on the spool label.
How do I set the polarity when installing this self-shielded wire?
Connect the torch to DCEN (direct current electrode negative) as specified for the E71T-11 classification.
When should I replace the 1 lb plastic spool during a project?
Replace the spool when the wire runs out; the 1 lb weight gives a limited run before a new spool is needed.
