36-inch TIG rod for tool steel

This Value Brand TIG welding rod measures 36 inches long with a 0.0625-inch diameter. It is classified under AWS H-12 for tool steel grade H12 applications. The rod operates on DCEN current and suits flat, horizontal, overhead and vertical positions. Supplied in a 5-pound package.

H-12 classification guides material match

The AWS H-12 series designation tells the welder this filler is formulated for H12 tool steel. No tensile or yield strength ratings are provided by the manufacturer. The classification replaces guesswork when selecting rod for die or mould repair. California Proposition 65 notice applies to this product.

Simple rod handling with standard prep

No flux coating means the rod feeds directly into the TIG torch without extra cleaning steps. Cut to length if shorter sections are needed for tight joints. The main risk is contaminating the tungsten if the rod tip touches the hot electrode during feeding.
