Why choose ABRATIG G3 filler metal?
Using ABRATIG G3 (also known simply as TIG G3, or ER70S-6 in the AWS standard) means choosing a filler wire for unalloyed steel, very common in TIG welding, for general applications.
- Versatility on unalloyed steels
Suitable for welding mild to medium-hard steels, type S235, S275, S355, P235GH, P265GH, etc.
For use on structural steels, boilermaking steels, piping steels, etc.
- Composition enriched with silicon and manganese
Approx. 0.95% Mn and 0.95% Si
→ Improves bath deoxidation (very useful in the presence of scale or residual oxides)
→ Produces a cleaner, brighter weld, with less risk of inclusions
Good bath fluidity, facilitates long welds or multiple passes
- Mechanical characteristics
Typical tensile strength: ~500-550 MPa
Good toughness, good behavior under moderate stress
Can be used in any position, if well controlled
