This is terrible wire, I weld for a living and use only lincoln wire. I had to buy a roll last minute so I tried this as it would come in same day, big mistake. I pulled more wire out of the gun then I put down on a weld. I thought it was my trusty lincoln 180 so I put it in a new machine and did the same thing. It constantly filled the tips with some kind of black substance and even the liner had to be cleaned 4 different times as the wire would get stuck. I have never had these problems before with lincoln or hobart wire. The welds were terrible since the wire speed was so inconsistent, do yourself a favor and by lincoln or hobart wire.

Retired welder here , have 36 yrs under my belt and gone through about 1/4 of the spool and it’s good stuff , if your not that experienced it’s very forgiving wire

I personally like/need a multi pass wire. New to welding so I’m not sure I can give a fair review.

Been usu g Hobart fcw and then switched to Forney. I find that the beads are cleaner with less splatter, even on painted or rusted metal.

Some comments saying other brands best. I have no experience with them but I got this to use in my Forney gasless MIG welder and it's just fine. Yes there's splatter but that seems to be the thing with flux core. I'm getting nice welds which clean up easily. Much more convenient for quick jobs and infrequent use than the gas MIG I sold.

Great flux-core MIG wire. Smooth feeding, clean beads, easy to use on dirty or rusty metals, not as spattery as some brands.
