Hello everyone
R45 and R60 welding rod can not find,
ER70S-G can replace R45 or R60 welding rod?

Thank you

yes.. R45 RG45 R60 RG60 R70 RG70 all will work. the rod diameter is more important than the makeup of the rod. I have used all of them.

Thank you, Tom C
I purchased ER70S-G (ER70S-6),
Not R70 or RG70, is the same? Confirm you can use?

[Tom C]

yes. the rod diameter has been factored to help dissipate residual magnetism in the core. so get the right diameter, too small and it acts like a solid core, too big and there is too much space between the rods.
