Blue Demon Gasless Flux Core wires E71T-GS and E71T-11

- E71T-GS is a carbon steel, flux cored electrode for use without an external shielding gas. This electrode is intended for welding thin-gauge carbon steel, ranging from 3/16” to 22 gauge.
E71T-11 is a self-shielding flux cored wire used for welding carbon steels. Does not require a shielding gas and can be used in limited multi-pass welding operations.

Unnecessary music, the video would be far better by demo and speech of explanation of differences between both the wire types
appreciate your feedback
And what volt and wire speed setting! Other than that those beads are beautiful 🙏👏
I have used Blue Demon almost exclusively for the past few years after finding it for a low price on Amazon and reading the reviews.
Was a good price until it almost doubled in the last year on Amazon.
too expensive
So, from readings... the -11 is general use and multipass... and the -GS is SINGLE PASS ONLY... WHY? If slag is wired off, will it not repuddle the weld? Does it not like to float the crap to the top? I generally use, and like, the Lincoln (e71T-ii) NR211 in .030... what are the Blue Demon prods/cons in comparo... other than price? Thanks.
GS is rated as single pass. 11 is rated as 'limited' multipass meaning conditions need to be perfect. I can personally tell you they both work multi-pass and can be stacked. Both the Blue Demon and LE are the exact same AWS spec.
But why is it different? What makes -gs single pass and -11 multipass? If there is none then why does -gs exist?
Also what makes it not possible for multipass? Does the slag from the gs just contaminate the weld if you weld more on top?
@@Fernybeme that was what i was thinking. mutli pass never hurt if you get slag off.
@@bluedemonweld as a follow-up, when you make multi-passes with GS, is the weld metal more brittle than a single pass of GS? I was under the impression that GS is single pass only because multi-passes of GS wire result in lower ductility and increased brittleness. Also, if your GS can be stacked with no ill effects, then why not label this wire as E71T-G (instead of -GS)?
Do you guys make a chart for your wire? My welder doesn't have one and it would be nice if they're was a chart I could use for what voltage, wire speed for different thickness and types of steel.
Looks good little more slag but in all nice shiny weld.
I cant see the difference between these wires…GS wire(general purpose Single pass) as we see you welded in several pass…Whats the stregnht of the weld with GS wire ?

I thought E71TGS was only one pass compared to E71T11 which is for multi-pass welding.
That's my understanding as well.
Couldn't stand to watch the video
true but i have seen them both in multi-pass just fine as long as the weldor is decent. T-11 is a limited multi-pass wire. have to really remove 100% of slag btw passes.
@@bluedemonweld That's generally incorrect. "GS" wire is not held to any welding standard. While it will weld, it is prone to developing cracks from repeated heating.
‘G’ means electrode polarity & characteristics are not specified in AWS A5.20 specification.
‘S’ means single pass welding only.
@@rbhe357 I don't disagree, but i have simply seen it done without issue. neither is ideal for a multi-pass application. a wire like E70T-4 should be used.
Does your E71T-11 wire run at approximately the same settings as E71T-GS? My mig welder doesn’t publish any recommended settings for E71T-11, only -GS
yes
Switched from the normal wire to the blue demon stainless steel. Settings are much different from the normal wire.
I couldn't manage to make a normal wide puddle due to my limited time. I managed to get it to sizzle consistently with a higher wire speed(102) and slightly above normal heat on my Tooliom TL-135.
Hope this helps with a head-start idea for those having trouble finding the settings to have it puddle properly.
Anyone else with tips, I'm open ears.
I'm a beginner here. I actually wish there were some technical explanations & comparative analysis for using each type. I heard this is fantastic wire, but ditch the music & tell me why I should use your product. Thanks..
sorry.. they are soooo close in flux chemistry it is almost impossible to tell the difference. technically T-11 is for 'limited multi-pass' but tbh i have seen them both used in multi-pass if the weldor is decent and all slag is removed between passes.
FUN background music! Ska, rock, etc. by (fun band name) First Bassists.
yeah boi!
Can just watch since my weld disgust me....can't even find perfect setting for 1mm steel weld🥲🥲🥲
Cant find e71t-11 in the uk anywhare,
really??? seems strange. our UK dealer TEC Products LTD can get it for you
@@bluedemonweld thank you,
I found some on Amazon with a 3 week delivery,
But all e71t in the UK seems to be GS.
I'll check out that company, thanks.

This is the only e71t-11 they do,

honestly almost identical. use the GS and save yourself $@@PeakyBlinder
The blue demon e71t-11 works better than gs
but they are soooooo close! ;)
One thing these videos never show is the damn volt/wire speed settings 🤦♂️
But your beads are beautiful!! 🙏
great point! will do next time
Poor technique
why is that?
I’ve heard about not using this technique. Not sure why. I’ve stopped using it. Amps not high enough my instructor told me that’s why, I used to use that technique.
