ED561178 - Lincoln SuperArc L-56 .035 MIG Wire 500lb Drum ER70S-6

Premium Mild Steel MIG Wire for Industrial Automation

The Lincoln Electric SuperArc L-56 is a premium copper-coated mild steel solid wire designed to meet the rigorous demands of heavy industrial fabrication and robotic automation. Classified as ER70S-6, this wire is engineered with elevated levels of manganese and silicon. These chemical elements act as powerful deoxidizers, enabling the wire to tolerate medium to heavy mill scale, rust, and oil on base materials. This capability makes it an essential consumable for structural steel projects, automotive manufacturing, and general fabrication where surface preparation may not always be perfect.

One of the standout features of the SuperArc L-56 is its MicroGuard Ultra surface treatment. This proprietary finish ensures superior feeding characteristics, which is critical when using long conduit runs typical in robotic cells or boom-mounted wire feeders. The consistent diameter and cast of the wire prevent tangling and burn-back, significantly reducing downtime associated with wire feeding issues. The 500 lb drum packaging is specifically tailored for high-volume production environments, minimizing the frequency of changeovers compared to standard spools, thereby increasing overall operational efficiency.

In terms of weld quality, this wire delivers excellent toe-wetting and a flat bead profile, reducing the need for post-weld grinding. It supports a variety of metal transfer modes, including short-circuiting, globular, axial spray, and pulsed spray transfer, providing versatility across different welding positions and plate thicknesses. Whether used with 100% CO2 for deep penetration or Argon/CO2 blends for a smoother arc and reduced spatter, the SuperArc L-56 delivers consistent, high-quality results that industrial professionals trust.

Key Industrial Benefits:

• High Deoxidizer Content: Handles dirty steel and mill scale effectively.
• Bulk Packaging: 500 lb drum reduces changeover frequency for automation.
• Superior Feedability: Copper coating and surface treatment prevent liner wear and jams.
