ER80S-W
AWS A5.28 ER80S-W
80S-W is a wire designedforsingleor multi pass using 98% AR/2% O2 or Argon/CO2 shielding gas welding having a smooth spray-type transfercommonly used on weathering steels. This all position wire will provide a good weld deposit color match on such alloy as ASTM A588 &242 and weathering steels. Weathering steels are normally used in the construction of bridges, highway, shipyards, rail road and many other general industries and buildings.
