Reply:it USED to be (not sure about now) that all the major welding rod manufacturers published "pocket handbooks" that listed all their rod, electrodes,consumables, usually for a nominal price , including specs, uses, strength, all pertinent info . Sometimes you had to write the company to get them , if the local supplier was not interested in helping out the welders by stocking the books
Reply:I'm getting pretty chummy with the main guy that works in a welding supply shop near me. I'll ask him about those books next time I'm in for supplies.Thanks,Rich
