Advantages of the NS ARC NS National-Arc™ Copper-Glide™ NS 101 Welding Wire
The NS National-Arc™ Copper-Glide™ NS 101 welding wire is highly resistant to corrosion, so this type of wire protects the integrity of the weld against corrosive environments. This is especially important in applications where the wire may be exposed to moisture in humidity before use, such as with shipbuilding and pipe welding.
Shielding Gas Blends for NS National-Arc™ Copper-Glide™ NS 101 Welding Wire
For optimal performance, Copper-Glide™ NS 101 requires specific shielding gas blends such as:
- 100% CO2
- 75-95% Argon/Balance CO2
- 95-98% Argon/Balance O2
- Flow rate of 35-50 CFH
It is also compatible with all-position welding, provided that the correct shielding gas blends, welding process, and welding parameters are used.
