thank you
I want to thank everyone for their help with my question about the copper coating on the carbon tig filler rods. As far as someone sugesting just using a 308 rod...im guessing you ment a 309 for welding carbon. I know a 309 will work on carbon but not sure about a 308...Anyway thanks for the help.

All we use for filler at work is S.S. I can't remember which one at the moment. We don't tig carbon steel every day most of our tig work is alum. and stainless so it's not worth having 3 types of filler when 2 will get the job done.
