2,4mm CCMS - Copper Coated Rods - Mild Steel Welding Rods For Oxy / Acetylene Fusion Welding - CCR
1 rod is roughly 35g in weight.
Welding of mild steels with oxy / acetylene whether it be a construction project or chassis repair or any one of a multitude of projects CCR welding rods are your filler material to getting the job completed.
The copper coating is very thin so as not to affect the weld pool but it does protect the rods from corroding too quickly.
Always use the correct size welding nozzle for the material thickness you will be welding, remember that a welding nozzle should not be turned up to increase heat when required because the flame cone becomes too forcing making welding difficult, however each wedling nozzle has a 50% turn down ratio so choose the next larger nozzle and reduce the flame size to ensure you have the heat required. Choosing a larger diameter CCR welding rod also has the effect of freezing the weld pool more quickly.
Welding rods are 1000mm long with "ID" marker on the end. These rods are for use with general mild steel, higher strength filler rods are available.
The rods will be supplied in a cardboard tube for protection during transport.
