Welding Wire Carbon Steel 0.045 in
This solid MIG wire is made from carbon steel and carries AWS ER70S-2 classification. It comes on a 2 lb spool with a 0.045 in diameter for GMAW processes. The wire delivers a tensile strength of 79,000 psi.
Suitability for fabrication and repair
The product suits welders running GMAW on mild steel who need ER70S-2 chemistry. It is not for flux-cored or TIG processes, nor for applications requiring stainless or aluminium filler metal. Buyers needing larger spools or different diameters should look elsewhere.
ER70S-2 classification confirms alloy chemistry
This single designation tells you the wire meets AWS ER70S-2 requirements for carbon steel MIG welding. Match the classification to your procedure specification before purchase.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 0.045 in carbon steel wire add during long MIG runs?
The wire is rated at 79,000 psi tensile strength for GMAW welding; actual heat input is controlled by your machine’s voltage and wire-feed settings.
What equipment is needed to run this 2 lb spool of ER70S-2 wire?
A MIG welder that accepts 0.045 in solid wire on a 2 lb spool, plus appropriate drive rolls, liner, contact tip and shielding gas for carbon steel.
Will this ER70S-2 spool feed reliably through an older wire feeder?
The 0.045 in diameter and standard spool size match common feeder specs; confirm your drive rolls and liner are rated for 0.045 in solid wire.
