Westward 20AP70 TIG Filler Rod
The Westward 20AP70 is a 36 inch TIG filler rod with a 0.035 inch diameter. It carries AWS classification ER80S-D2 and is made from low-alloy steel. The 1 lb package suits welders joining low-alloy steel to low-alloy steel in flat, horizontal, overhead and vertical positions using DCEN current.
Replaces lower-strength mild steel filler
This rod upgrades from mild steel fillers when a minimum tensile strength of 80 ksi is required. The jump is worth it for structural joints that demand 68 ksi minimum yield strength as-welded. It is not for builders who need higher alloy content or different AWS classifications for specialised service conditions.
One pound spool for low-alloy steel joints
The 1 lb quantity provides enough length for multiple passes on smaller fabrications or repair work. It comfortably handles joints in the flat, horizontal, overhead and vertical-up or vertical-down positions. It runs out on large-diameter pipe runs or heavy plate welds that consume several pounds per joint.

Questions about this item
What diameter collet body and gas lens do I need for the .035 in ER80S-D2 rod?
Use a collet body and gas lens sized for 0.035 in filler metal; the rod diameter is 0.035 in.
What polarity and position should I set on the TIG machine for this ER80S-D2 rod?
Set the machine to DCEN polarity; the rod is rated for flat, horizontal, overhead, vertical-down and vertical-up positions.
When should I replace the rod based on tensile strength after welding?
The as-welded tensile strength is 80 ksi; replace the rod if the weld deposit no longer meets this 80 ksi requirement.
