- Size: .035'
Using this Blue Demon ER316LSI .035 stainless steel TIG rod is quite straightforward. First, make sure your welding machine is set to the DCEN welding current as specified. You can use this rod in various positions - vertical, overhead, horizontal, or full - on welding. When you start welding, the extra silicon in this rod will help the weld spread nicely and give you a smooth bead right away. For a great cosmetic finish, take your time and keep a steady hand. As for maintenance, store the rod in a dry place to prevent rusting. If you notice any damage to the rod, don't use it as it might affect the quality of your weld. Also, always follow safety procedures when welding, like wearing proper protective gear.
