A quick call to R-Tech, a new roll installed and straight back to perfect ***s. Many thanks. Very happy customer. I can't rate this wire highly enough.

Nice 0.8 wire which was easy to load into the welder. Have already used quite a bit of it with no jams or slippage.
-
I?ve been using *** and Halfords 0.8 wire till now, and in my opinion the r-tech supplied wire is definitely better quality!
-
Good product
-
It is 0.8mm and it weighed 5kg...... not much else I can say.

Not used the 0.8 yet, but don't expect any issues based on the quality of the 0.6

The welding wire is very good quality my friends also by welding equipment from you I buy all my welding equipment from r teck
-
So far so good
-
It?s mig wire
-
Currently in the cupboards, awaiting me finishing the previous drum of wire!
-
Welds cleanly with (surprisingly) very little splatter, cuts cleanly with side-cutters, and runs through the lead cable very smoothly and quietly.

-
Good product
-
Great.
-
If I was desperate to be critical I would say it was over-packaged. The wire in a box being placed in another box with plastic foam seems a little excessive for wire that can?t really be damaged. But I?m being nit picky!
-
The product is great! It is really useful for the cleaner sculptures I make. I normally use arc welding off my inverter but I use the mig for my sheet metal work.
-
Not used yet but was happy that it was give to me as part of the deal.
-
Good no complaints
-
Brilliant very too no spatter at all
-
Fed through the welder really nicely, arcs up well, good weld.
-
Its good stuff, works well, and as an hobby operator its great, not saying its not for Pro's here.
-
Not used yet, but appears great and I?ve no doubt it will work well with the welder.

Don?t be deceived by the small size, this is an inverter welder so doesn?t have the bulk or weight of the old transformer units. It also produces much better welds all round. It looks to be very well built and uses very modern electronics, not like the 1st generation inverters that used cheap MOSFET transistors. The feed rollers are also very good quality and (unlike cheaper units) it also has the standard Euro fitting torch which means you can use your favourite welding torch, not that the supplied unit needs replacing, quite the opposite, it?s excellent. Having the Euro socket also means this unit can do scratch start TIG if that?s your thing. The final icing on the cake is the MMA stick welding function. This is super handy if you weld outside and it?s a bit windy. It?s also dead handy for large section steel, where MIG would just be a waste of gas. Very highly recommended, this replaces a Lincoln 3 phase unit I had and it?s all round a better welder. You can also carry it with one hand whereas rolling the Lincoln around was a pain, it was huge. This thing can be put in the boot of even the smallest car which makes welding just about anywhere really simple. If you need a more powerful unit the 250 amp one is very similar but this one is more than capable for all car based stuff, even on a 13 amp plug. To give an idea of the power, the 180 amp unit on the 16 amp supply can easily blow holes in 3mm mild steel. Awesome. The infinitely variable current and wire speed make getting it perfect a breeze. None of those 6 fixed settings on this, just pure quality.
