This ESAB Coreshield 15 MIG welding wire is an all-position, self-shielded, flux-cored welding wire for single pass applications. Its use of DCEN (electrode negative) minimizes the risk of burn through and it is excellent for lap and fillet welds on galvanized and mild steels in all welding positions. It has a 0.045-inch diameter with a 1/2-inch electrode stick out. Available in a 15-kilogram spool.
