MIG/MAG wires

MIG/MAG welding wire is used in welding. There is a difference between MIG and MAG: MIG stands for

MIG/MAG wires are most commonly employed to weld thin pieces of metal together. They are used to fill gaps between two pieces of metal by depositing filler wire into them.

To join metal pieces, welders work with MIG/MAG. As the pieces are clamped together, the wire is inserted into the gun of a welding machine. This should be followed by a constant feed and trigger action. This will maintain a consistent weld line along the joint.

The welder has control over how much heat is applied to each area by using a regulator available in the welding machine.
