TAURUS E71T is a rutile-type, mixed gas(75% argon / 25% CO₂) shielded flux-cored wire for welding carbon manganese steels. It is recommended for the all positional welding of mild and low-alloy steels with a tensile strength of up to 620 MPa for general purpose fabrication. This wire provides increased toughness at sub zero temperatures. It has low spatter levels and the slag is easily removable.
