.023 flux core wire?

[2brokefor1:1]

Does it exist? If so where are you getting it from? Local welding supply said they couldn't get it that small.

Thanks in advance.

Smallest I saw was .030" in flux core. Flux core sucks anyway. Your 100% better off using .023"-.025" solid wire and using the appropriate shielding gas. Weld quality and arc control is tons better.

Yeah, too bad my welder doest accept gas :(

030 is the smallest flux core availabe. you can buy a seperate atachment to run gas instaed of buying a wole new mahcine. or maybe contact the manufa. for a update package

Hopefully you didn't use .030 flux core, because it would then most definitely suck ;)

i didn't but even if i had, the truck takes a beating and still holds up, so what part of it sucks so bad? don't get me wrong, i can see the difference when welding with a 220 welder but the flux core still doable. i never welded any rc stuff so maybe rc stuff requires a better welder 185 or higher????
