CO2 Copper-Coated MIG Welding Wire, 0.8mm Diameter, 5kg Spool
Brief Overview
This copper-coated welding wire is engineered for reliable performance in CO2 and mixed-gas MIG welding operations. The 0.8mm diameter profile makes it ideal for general fabrication, automotive repair, and light structural work. With a 5kg capacity on a standard 200x56mm spool and 50mm drive hub, it integrates seamlessly into existing MIG equipment. For shops requiring broader wire options, complementary mild steel filler wire in AWS A5.18 classification and specialized TIG rods are available to round out your consumables inventory.
Key Features
- Wire Diameter: 0.8mm – optimal for thin to medium plate thickness
- Spool Configuration: 200x56mm flanges with 50mm drive hub (standard fit)
- Coating: Copper-coated for enhanced electrical conductivity and arc stability
- Gas Compatibility: Suitable for CO2 and mixed-gas shielding atmospheres
- Wire Classification: SG2 (solid wire for semi-automatic applications)
- Packaging: Plastic spool with radial-ribbed flanges for secure wire retention
Business Advantages for Resellers
- High-Volume Appeal: 5kg spool size aligns with regular shop consumption cycles—frequent reorders drive predictable turnover
- Standard Specifications: SG2 wire meets universal MIG equipment compatibility, reducing customer service complexity
- Margin Opportunity: Welding consumables generate consistent repeat revenue with minimal support overhead
- Stock Flexibility: Compact spool footprint allows efficient shelf management and bulk inventory stacking
- Cross-Sell Ready: Pair with standard mild steel ER70S-6 wire variants to offer shops complete wire ranges and increase basket value

Why This Wire Performs
The copper coating ensures consistent electrical contact between the wire feeder and the spool, reducing feeding resistance and arc initiation issues. The 0.8mm diameter bridges general-purpose fabrication and automotive repair work—small enough for precision joints on thinner materials, robust enough for sustained production runs. Standard spool geometry minimizes setup time and eliminates compatibility concerns across different MIG machines in your customer base.
