- ALUMINUM: For welding aluminum, an aluminum wire will be required as well as gas. Argon will need to be used in this application.
- STAINLESS STEEL: For stainless steel, likewise a stainless wire will be required. You can use either argon or CO2 on this wire.
- MILD STEEL: Mild steel flux core wire is best for thin gauge mild steel and doesn’t require the use of a shielding gas, although it can be used. Mild steel wire does require the use of a shielding gas. You can also use either argon or CO2 on this wire.
