Westward 20YD82 Flux-Cored Welding Wire 0.035 in 10 lb E71T-11
Flux-cored welding wire for carbon steel, 0.035 in diameter on a 10 lb plastic spool, self-shielded E71T-11 classification
- TypeWelding Supplies
- Self-shielded flux-cored wire eliminates the need for external shielding gas
- 035 in diameter suits thin-gauge carbon steel fabrication
- E71T-11 AWS classification certifies all-position single-pass capability
- 70 to 95 ksi tensile strength delivers reliable joint integrity
- 10 lb plastic spool provides extended welding time between changeovers
Purpose and User
This flux-cored welding wire is designed for carbon steel fabrication using a self-shielded FCAW process. It suits welders who need a portable DCEN setup without external gas cylinders.
Thermal and Electrical Behaviour
The wire delivers a tensile strength of 70 to 95 ksi and a minimum yield strength of 58 ksi when welded on carbon steel. Self-shielded operation eliminates gas flow but produces typical flux-cored spatter and fume levels.
Spool and Classification Benefits
A 10 lb plastic spool feeds smoothly on standard wire drive rolls and resists moisture uptake during storage. AWS E71T-11 classification confirms the wire meets structural code requirements for single-pass and limited multi-pass welds.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 0.035 in flux-cored wire on my welder, and what polarity setting do people often get wrong?
Mount the 10 lb plastic spool, feed the 0.035 in wire through the drive rolls and liner, then set the machine to DCEN polarity — the E71T-11 classification requires electrode negative, and users frequently leave it on DCEP by mistake.
What maintenance or replacement will the 10 lb spool of E71T-11 wire need later?
The spool is a consumable; once the 10 lb of 0.035 in flux-cored wire is used up you simply replace it with a new spool of the same AWS classification — no other parts on the wire itself require servicing.
What limit shows up first when running the E71T-11 wire continuously at high amperage?
The 0.035 in diameter reaches its current-carrying capacity before the 70-95 ksi tensile strength or 58 ksi yield strength become factors, so the wire diameter is the practical ceiling during sustained welding.
