EXCUSIA00000350M00 - Exocor ERCuSi-A Silicon Bronze MIG Wire .035 30lb

Premium Exocor ERCuSi-A Silicon Bronze MIG Wire

The Exocor ERCuSi-A Silicon Bronze MIG Wire is a high-performance copper-based consumable designed for specialized industrial welding and brazing applications. Formulated with approximately 3% silicon and small amounts of manganese and tin, this alloy (UNS C65600) provides excellent flow characteristics, mechanical strength, and corrosion resistance. It is manufactured to meet strict AWS A5.7 specifications, ensuring consistent chemistry and performance across every spool. This 30lb spool of 0.035-inch diameter wire is precision layer-wound, which is critical for automated and semi-automated welding processes to prevent tangling and ensure smooth wire feeding through the liner and contact tip.

This wire is primarily utilized for Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) of copper-silicon, copper-zinc, and copper-to-steel base metals. It is widely recognized in the fabrication industry for its utility in surfacing applications where parts are subject to corrosion. The silicon content acts as a deoxidizer, helping to reduce porosity and improve the soundness of the weld metal. When used on steel, it minimizes dilution and provides a ductile, crack-resistant deposit. The wire typically requires 100% Argon shielding gas, though Argon/Helium mixtures can be employed for thicker sections requiring higher heat input.

Industrial maintenance and repair operations frequently rely on Exocor Silicon Bronze for overlaying surfaces that require low magnetic permeability and resistance to saline environments. Its versatility extends to the HVAC and chemical processing industries, where joining dissimilar metals is a common requirement. The 30lb spool size is optimized for industrial wire feeders, reducing downtime associated with frequent spool changes in high-volume production environments. By choosing Exocor, fabricators benefit from a consumable that delivers stable arc transfer, minimal spatter, and high-quality bead aesthetics.
