CO ED031448 .030 NR-211, Lb Spool, Inner Shield Flux-Core Welding Wire,Black

Great product, can't go wrong with Lincoln welding supplies. Fast shipping with this seller, wouldn't hesitate to order from them again.

Hobbiest, ran through harbor F. Welder, mainly .074 to .187 material doing fillet and butt welds, did about 237" (~20 feet) of welding before running out, mind you this is a 1 pound spool. Pros: way less splatter, clean wire Cons: cost.. Compare to Hobart and some other harbor F. Brand, there about 40% less splatter then those cheaper brands, but a lot of that depends on good nozzle control, angle, feed, and material cleaning. A little change in angle makes a big difference! The pic is .125 angle iron before any grinding, ran the wire brush and as you can see little splatter. I did have trouble laying down 2nd layer, but that a probably just my skill level problem. As for cost, it little pricy, as you only get 1lb of wire, wile most spools are 2lb and for about the same price. At end of the day, yes I recommend this wire if your doing new builds or At least decent clean material. I just ordered my second roll, and might just buy a box next time. As for cost, stuff is a bit

This wire is very forgiving. It works great even if your settings or technique aren't good. I've used it in both transformer and inverter machines and it always works well. I see a lot of complaints about the spools only being one pound instead of two. Yes, Lincoln makes more money that way and some people will feel tricked. But there might be more to it. I notice when I get near the end of a two pound spool, there's wavering and inconsistency of the wire feed because the wire has been so tightly coiled. And I've also noticed the Lincoln wire is very stiff, if it came on two pound spools it might suffer even more from that feed inconsistency. Just a thought, who knows. I think this wire is worth the extra money. If I was tighter for money I'd probably buy a ten pound roll and try to respool some one pound spools.

Came on time. Had good luck with this wire in the pass.

Excellent wire for my welding machine.

I'm still learning to weld and my welds were getting worse, couldn't get my machine dialed in "just right" and I was getting so frustrated that I'd kinda given up on welding. I thought maybe it was this old 1980 or 90 Chicago Electric Duel 131 with HFT 0.030 Flux. So I thought I'd have to buy a new welder. But ... A friend suggested Lincoln .030 NR-211 Flux. I did a few test welds & got the best pooling, penitration & permanence plus the nicest looking beads since I started learning 2 years ago. Now my welds look like I've been welding all my life and pass the deconstruction tests. This Lincoln NR-211 MP makes my +30 year old little 110v Chicago / HFT welder worth keeping. (Saving me well over $1000 just by buying an $18 roll of Lincoln wire).

Purchased item arrived through mail system on time. I went with this brand because its a well known and good brand. I just chose this brand because they are known for good products. I have already applied wire to machine and started working on DIY projects. I started with making my own custom chain chipping hammer and used this wire to do so. This wire works superb with my welder, smooth and quick tacs and beads.

Good all purpose wire , penetrates / wets well and leaves little slag behind. Far better than no name or harbour freight wire . Be sure to use a knurled drive roller with it . Oddly enough my welder did not include one and had to order separately

Esta soldadura tiene buena penetracion, no genera poros y poco chisporroteo, trabaja bien en todas posiciones, en fin la recomiendo ampliamente, no ocupa gas !

Used on my MIG welder and it works great!

Very good welding wire, very easy to get good looking welds with fluidity of the melted metal. Careful when clearing slag from part after welding. This wire lays slag on top of weld thick and plenty.

worked fine
