(1) Lincoln Electric recommends multiple pass welds on 1/2" (12.7 mm) material. Consult the appropriate application procedures and guidelines for selecting the correct wire size,
gas type and number of passes.
(2) .035" and .045" (0.9 and 1.2 mm) NR ® -211-MP is only recommended up to 5/16" (7.9 mm) thick material.
(3) For .035" (0.9 mm) and 4043 aluminum wire, the spool gun is recommended for best feeding results.

What Is It?
Diamond Core Technology
™ is a patented innovative
choke design that filters the welding arc. It provides
dynamic arc filtering across the entire welding amp
rage. Other arc stabilization methods are “fixed” –
or only working at certain amperages – resulting in
harsh arc characteristic changes over the welding
range.
Results:
• Great starts and low spatter.
• A wide sweet spot for optimal
arc performance.
Great For :
• Steel, stainless and aluminum.
• Out-of-position work.
• Long arc applications.
• Weaving techniques.
