PERFORMANCE

Results:
• Great starts and low spatter.
• A wide sweet spot for optimal
arc performance.

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.

Great For:
• Steel, stainless and aluminum.
• Out-of-position work.
• Long arc applications.
• Weaving techniques.

(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.

SPOOL GUN SOLUTIONS
Spool Guns offer an affordable way to reliably feed soft aluminum wire. Since spool guns feed small 4 inch spools of wire a short
distance it provides a reliable feeding solution that prevents wire jams and tangles. The POWER MIG® 215XT provides three choices
of spool gun solutions form the cost effective light duty Magnum® 100SG for occasional aluminum projects to the premium heavy
duty Magnum® 250LX which is designed for day in day out aluminum welding applications.
