OVERVIEW

Premium ER70S-6 Solid MIG Wire for Automation

The Lincoln Electric SuperArc L-59 (SKU: ED561132) is a high-performance mild steel solid electrode designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial fabrication and robotic welding cells. Classified as an ER70S-6 wire, it features high levels of manganese and silicon, which act as powerful deoxidizers. This chemical composition allows the wire to tolerate light to moderate amounts of mill scale, oil, and contaminants on the base metal, ensuring sound welds with excellent mechanical properties even in less-than-perfect surface conditions.

Engineered with Lincoln's proprietary manufacturing technology, SuperArc L-59 boasts a high-quality copper coating that enhances electrical contact and arc initiation. The wire's dimensional precision and consistent cast and helix ensure superior feedability, drastically reducing friction within the liner and gun. This is particularly critical for the 0.052-inch diameter variant when used in long conduit runs typical of bulk drum setups. The 500 lb drum packaging is specifically optimized for high-volume production environments, minimizing the downtime associated with frequent spool changes and maximizing arc-on time.

This wire is versatile in its shielding gas compatibility, performing exceptionally well with both 100% CO2 and Argon/CO2 blends. It delivers a stable arc with low spatter generation, resulting in reduced post-weld cleanup and improved overall productivity. Ideal for automotive components, heavy equipment manufacturing, and structural steel fabrication, the SuperArc L-59 provides the reliability and consistency required for critical welding operations.
