I did see where your values came from, thanks

It seems that there are conflicting data sheets, the link I posted on page 2 (4th post down*) will show where I found this information.

*sure wish the posts were numbered :(

That is for their stick electrode, the TIG rod is different, or so it seems

Not sure where you're getting that. 3-SMW is the TIG filler rod.

I found it and figured it out. :ugeek: Of course Niobium which is currently "NB" was formerly "CB" and that threw me even after I found the section "c" note. See here:

Niobium - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niobium
Niobium, formerly columbium, is a chemical element with symbol Nb (formerly Cb) and atomic ... Niobium has physical and chemical properties similar to those of the element tantalum, and the two are difficult to distinguish. The English chemist ...

Well, I need to go outside and burn the brush pile that is 15 foot tall so I will check back later. :o
Don't use gasoline! You don''t wanna know how I know that :lol:
I used to use gasoline and that big "WOOF" noise caught me off guard a few times but never hurt me. Today/tonight I used 1 match and some newspaper and got it going. Then I had to drag the 20 piles of brush that were in line to be burnt that I couldn't throw up onto the already too tall pile. Got Er Done! ;)

Yes, and I am glad in way as I have 5 pounds of it and also some stick electrodes and don't feel like I got ripped off. :lol: I know the stuff works and I like the way works too. I only use mine on special occasions. 8-)

Same here. I picked up 1/16" and 3/32" a couple years ago, just for the hell of it. :lol: Would be cool if they made it in 0.045" or 0.035" for super extra special occasions. :)

I just have 1/16" and when I see a sale I may even buy some more in 3/32" If it's a really good sale some 0.035 or 0.045 is a possibility. 8-) So I assume you like the way it welds too.

I have prototypes here if you want to try them. They're contemplating changing the name to "Mission-Critical Thermo-Nuclear Warhead Weld", just depends which name will sell more pounds. Package will look like this:
