Description
🔧 ERCuSn-C MIG Wire 1.2mm – 15kg Spool for Tin Bronze Welding
The ERCuSn-C MIG wire (1.2mm diameter) is a high-performance welding wire designed for MIG welding of tin bronze alloys. Supplied on a 15kg spool, this wire offers consistent arc stability, low spatter, and excellent corrosion resistance. It is well-suited for joining copper-tin alloys and for surfacing steel components with a bronze layer.
Containing copper and around 8–9% tin, this wire produces strong, ductile welds that resist cracking, making it ideal for both structural and decorative bronze welding applications. Thanks to its easy feedability and smooth arc transfer, the ERCuSn-C MIG wire is a reliable option for professional fabrication and maintenance.
💪 Applications of ERCuSn-C MIG Wire
The ERCuSn-C MIG wire performs exceptionally in environments where strength, corrosion resistance, and good conductivity are important. Common applications include:
-
Bronze casting repairs
-
Valve bodies and pump components
-
Decorative bronze structures
-
Bearings, bushings, and propellers
-
Overlay on steel for corrosion resistance
Because of its tin content, it is especially effective for joining bronze to other copper alloys or steel surfaces.
⚙️ Welding Performance and Tips
This wire is best used with pure Argon or Argon/Helium shielding gas. Suggested current for 1.2mm wire is typically 160–220 amps, depending on the material thickness and joint type.
To ensure optimal performance:
-
Thoroughly clean the base metals before welding
-
Maintain steady travel speeds and consistent gas flow
-
Avoid overheating thin sections to reduce distortion
Refer to our welding parameters guide for detailed amperage settings and gas recommendations.
