I was using expensive Stainless Steel rods to weld mild steel, and I could not see the point. I am so glad I bought these. They are clean, great to weld with, and although too thick for some of my jobs, perfect for the rest.
I will have to buy some smaller gauge ones now.
As they always have, Alex and the KO team have smashed it out of the park. So easy to buy what I need in the quantity I need to suit the scale of y business.
Cheers again mate.

Look the part (I have not tried them yet, just restocking).
