Value Brand 23XM45 TIG Welding Rod 1/16" 36" 10 lb

SKU CH-KME8-3RE9Z

AWS ER70S-2 carbon-steel TIG rod, 1/16 in diameter, 36 in length, 10 lb pack for flat, horizontal, overhead and vertical welding positions

  • TypeWelding Supplies
  • ER70S-2 classification ensures strong carbon-steel welds
  • 70 ksi tensile strength delivers reliable joint integrity
  • 58 ksi yield strength resists deformation under load
  • 1/16" diameter suits precise TIG applications
  • 36" rod length reduces changeovers during long runs

ER70S-2 Tig Rod 1/16 Inch 10 Lb

This ER70S-2 tig welding rod measures .0625 in diameter by 36 in length and weighs 10 lb. It is manufactured by WESTWARD for tig welding on carbon steel base metal using DCEN current. The filler metal provides 70 ksi tensile strength and 58 ksi yield strength as welded.

Best For Flat Horizontal Overhead Vertical Positions

Welders joining carbon steel to carbon steel in flat, horizontal, overhead, vertical-down or vertical-up positions will find this rod suitable. The 10 lb package supports extended fabrication runs without frequent changeovers. Buyers who need a different diameter, length or alloy classification should look at other options.

AWS ER70S-2 Classification 70 Ksi Tensile

The AWS ER70S-2 classification confirms 70 ksi minimum tensile strength and 58 ksi minimum yield strength for carbon steel joints. This single specification determines whether the rod matches the mechanical requirements of the welding procedure.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 1/16 inch rod draw when running all day?

The rod itself draws no power; it is a consumable filler metal used with a TIG power source set to DCEN polarity.

What equipment must I already own to use the 10 lb pack of ER70S-2 rods?

You need a TIG (GTAW) welding machine capable of DCEN output, a suitable torch, shielding gas (typically argon), and personal protective equipment.

Will the 36 inch length and ER70S-2 classification work with my older carbon-steel projects?

Yes, the rods are rated for carbon-steel-to-carbon-steel joints in flat, horizontal, overhead, vertical-down and vertical-up positions with 70 ksi tensile strength.
