Gas Welding Rods for Joining Steel

Join steel using an oxyacetylene torch. These rods are a general purpose choice for mild and low-carbon steel, producing strong joints without requiring flux. Their low-carbon composition minimizes the risk of brittle welds, making them well suited for repair work, fabrication, and maintenance on sheet metal, tubing, and structural steel.
