ECOspark 4-NC is a solid wire for mild steel, supplied without a copper coating. It is used on steel structures, tanks, machine frames and workshop work on black steel.
It joins grades such as S235JR, S355JR, S235JO, S355JO, S235J2, S355J2 and S275N together with their equivalents. Leaving out the copper coating limits liner fouling and copper in the fumes.
