- OK AristoRod 12.50 is a MIG wire featuring ESAB's proprietary ASC (Advanced Surface Characteristics) technology
- The unique wire surface of AristoRod improves feedability and arc stability, provides extended corrosion resistance and arc starting properties, and reduces contact tip wear
- AristoRod 12.50 contains sufficient levels of manganese and silicon to provide a fluid weld puddle with superb wetting action
- The high levels of manganese and silicon also make AristoRod 12.50 a good choice for welding over moderate to high levels of rust and mill scale
- Shielding gas choices for AristoRod 12.50 include 100% CO2, argon/CO2 mixtures, argon/O2 mixtures, and other argon based mixed gas blends
- AristoRod 12.50 is used to weld carbon steels typically used in structural, automotive, agricultural and heavy equipment, and other general fabrication
