DETAILS
Lincoln's premium bare, mild steel MIG wire, SuperGlide® S6 is an excellent choice for welding on metals with a medium to high presence of millscale.
Features
- Deoxidizers tolerate light mill scale
- Microguard® Ultra provides superior feeding and arc stability
- Bare wire reduces copper fumes
- Supports short-circuiting, globular, axial spray and pulsed spray transfer
Typical Applications
- Medium to heavy mill scale base material
- Sheet metal to 380-485 MPa (55-70 ksi) yield strength material
- Automotive repair
Welding Positions
- All
Shielding Gas
- 100% CO2|Mixed Shielding Gas

⁽¹⁾ CTWD (Contact Tip to Work Distance). Subtract 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) to calculate Electrical Stickout. |
⁽²⁾ Procedures in these areas are procedures for short circuiting mode using 100% CO2. When using 75% Argon, 25% CO2 for short circuit transfer, reduce voltage by 1 to 2 volts. |
