36-inch ER70S-2 TIG rod for carbon steel
This 36-inch welding rod carries an AWS ER70S-2 classification for TIG welding carbon steel to carbon steel. The 1/16-inch diameter suits a range of material thicknesses and joint designs. It is supplied in a 1 lb package and operates on DCEN polarity.
70 ksi tensile strength
The rod delivers a minimum tensile strength of 70 ksi and a minimum yield strength of 58 ksi, providing reliable joint integrity on structural and general fabrication work. It is qualified for flat, horizontal, overhead, vertical-down and vertical-up positions. The 36-inch length reduces rod-change frequency on longer seams.
DCEN polarity restricts machine compatibility
This filler metal requires a DCEN power source, so it will not work with AC-only or DCEP-only TIG sets. Buyers needing AC output for aluminium or magnesium should select a different classification. The rod contains a substance listed under California Proposition 65.

Questions about this item
Will the 1/16" ER70S-2 rod feed cleanly through my existing TIG torch and collet body?
The 0.0625 in diameter matches standard 1/16" collets, so it fits common TIG torches without changing consumables.
How can I confirm the weld deposit meets the 70 ksi tensile spec after I finish a joint?
A properly made ER70S-2 weld on carbon steel should show smooth, uniform beads with good fusion; final verification requires tensile testing per AWS standards.
Does the 1 lb tube include any flux or shielding gas, or must I buy argon separately?
The package contains only the 36 in carbon-steel rods; shielding gas such as argon and any required collets are sold separately.
