OVERVIEW

Premium Mild Steel MIG Wire for Industrial Fabrication

The Hobart Quantum Arc 6 .035" MIG Wire is a high-performance solution designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern industrial fabrication. As an ER70S-6 class wire, it is formulated with higher levels of manganese and silicon deoxidizers compared to standard S-3 wires. This chemical composition makes it exceptionally forgiving when welding on base metals that exhibit light rust, oil, or mill scale, ensuring sound welds with minimal porosity. For workshops and production facilities where surface preparation time needs to be optimized without sacrificing weld quality, Quantum Arc 6 is the ideal choice.

Packaged in a substantial 45 lb spool, this wire is geared towards high-volume operations, reducing the frequency of changeovers and keeping production lines moving. It is highly versatile, performing well with both 100% Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Argon/CO2 shielding gas mixtures. This flexibility allows fabricators to tailor their gas selection based on the specific penetration profile and arc characteristics required for the job. Whether used in general manufacturing, automotive frame assembly, or heavy construction equipment repair, this wire delivers consistent results.

One of the standout features of the Hobart Quantum Arc 6 is its feedability. Engineered with precise diameter control and a high-quality copper coating, it feeds smoothly through liners and contact tips, significantly reducing drag and wear. This characteristic makes it particularly suitable for robotic and automated welding cells where wire feeding issues can cause costly downtime. From single-pass fillet welds to multi-pass structural joints, this wire provides a stable arc, low spatter, and excellent bead appearance, making it a staple inventory item for professional welding operations.
