I was surprised to see the ironworkers building the 5 story Mark S. Taper Imaging Center at Cedars-Sinai hospital using flux core mig. It was BIG flux core mig for BIG steel beams.
I use gas but I've used flux as well on a 24 hours of LeMons project. I was impressed overall. It was hard to tune it for sheet metal, their wire was a bit big, but it did a really excellent job of welding 1/8" and up, like seat belt tabs on the cage and cage gussets. I'd buy gas again but if all I could afford I'd buy flux core and convert it to a bottle later. |
