Hilco Red Extra 2.5mm - Hilco Red Rod - 5kg Packs (Approx: 274 rods)

The Hilco Red Extra rod is a universal welding rod for all positional welding. This also includes vertical down as you can see in the video. Slag release is amazing and is perfect for many forms of construction where you want only one rod to be used. 

They weld well giving an attractive finish in both AC and DC currents. They operate well with a low OCV too so your machine shouldn't have any problems pulling these rods even if its OCV is as low as 42v.
