Steel Wire for Automation

Straight and Clean from Beginning to End

ProStar™ welding wire is the right choice for weld productivity and quality — formulated for both manual and robotic welding.

What Does “Twist-Free” Mean in a Welding Wire?

• “Twist-free” means the drawing and packaging process results in a product with very little cast or helix –- wire comes out of its packaging much straighter compared to standard wires.
• Wire and arc placement are predictable — it goes where you want and doesn’t flip back and forth — helping to reduce over-welding, waste, and cost/inch.
• Straighter wire creates less wear points inside a conduit, with reduced possible binding areas and less drag for more consistent feeding.
• Straighter wire creates uniform contact tip wear, which means that properly sized tips can be used and consumable costs are reduced.
• Straighter wire provides feed consistency from pack to pack.
• All of these factors contribute to greater productivity, less downtime and reduced overall welding costs.

Standard Features

• No cast or helix
• Single, high-quality mill source
• High-tech, proprietary drawing processes
• Distinctly clean, consistent and smooth wire surfaces for a premium surface finish
• Exclusive, proprietary stackable wire package containers with lifting access on four sides
• Inner packaging

Benefits

• Minimizes arc wander, weld cost-per-inch and provides uniform tip wear
• Provides superior consistency of tight wire chemistry and purity while improving overall weld quality and overcast
• Maintains consistent wire diameter within defined tolerances
• Decreases downtime from wire feed issues
• Reduces impact on floor space and provides faster, more efficient transportation
• Cuts down on the effects of moisture
