help with flux core settings

by Gabriel Baptiste
(MD)

what is the correct settings for welding 3/4" mild steel plate with 1/6" flux core wire

------------------------------------------------
depends mostly on what position is being welded.

but also if you are talking about self shielded v gas shielded flux core.

for flat and horizontal, hotter settings can be used but for vertical uphill, lower settings are used.

a baseline starting point might be 25-30 volts and 250 ipm.
