Spool Type
Wire spool size: inner diameter 51 mm, external diameter 200 mm and width 55 mm.
Recommended Wires and Gas
ESAB’s OK Autrod 12.51 diameter 0.8 mm, for welding mild steels. A high quality copper coated wire for excellent mild steel welding results. ESAB’s Coreshield 15, diameter 0.8 mm, for welding mild steels. A cored wire that builds a slag protection and therefore needs no gas to weld a large variety of mild steels. Change polarity for best result.
Applications
The performance of this unit makes it a superb choice for mild steel welding applications. Perfect for tradesmen working with repair, maintenance or assembly work in the workshop, outdoors or at different sites. Single phase mains connection makes it easy to find a electricity supply. Works equally as well when powered by a portable generator. The Caddy® Mig C160i has optimised performance for welding with 0.8 mm wire on mild steels using solid or cored wires.
