Questions & Answers

Do they have a copper finish? In the photos, they appear to be so. Other than welding, I plan to use them. ?

The 1/16" copper coated ones were the ones I ordered.

When these rods reach a certain temperature, they melt. ?

Plus 3000F. They're designed to be used with tig welding.

Is this only for high-quality carbon steel? Would they be able to work on mild steel, such as a truck frame? I'd rather not have to redo the welds, right?

It will work on mild steel, but when I worked in an International truck shop on frame repair, I always used 7018 (keep in a warmer until you use it) with a stick welder (check with truck manf). for information on how to repair a frame with the correct type of repair It can be difficult to get a complete weld penetration with TIG welding. on a frame that doesn't have any multi-passes

Is there a difference between ceriated and theriated?

These are Tig welding filler rods made of mild steel. Ceriated or thoriated tungsten electrodes are used in Tig welding with a Tig torch.

I'm a little disappointed

I'm a little disappointed that it doesn't come with a tube and isn't labeled.

A better way for the seller to bundle these is needed
3/5

Duct tape was used by the seller to bundle the rods. The glue/residue from the duct tape will need to be cleaned off, or the ends will need to be cut off. The next time I need these, I'll look for them elsewhere.

There was a delivery issue, and the seller resented - USPS delivered an open and empty box, which was not a good product or customer service
4/5

I informed the seller, HYW Products, who promptly resent the order. While I disliked having to wait for the product, I thought they handled the situation well and will use them again.

The weight is under 2 lbs
3/5

Welding rod was ordered in a quantity of 2 lbs. It didn't weigh two pounds. I went back to get a new one. It was also significantly less than what was advertised. Rather than returning it, I decided to keep it. I won't be buying anything else. br>There was also a problem with customer service.

Rod of high quality
5/5

With these rods, I'm learning how to tig weld. They appear to function correctly; I believe the issue is with me.
