Hi
I have the Clarke 135TE MIG welder (with gas). I have just run out of welding wire! As I cannot find Clarke nbrand of wire near where I live, will another brand of wire fit my machine? Are the spools a standard size? I am looking for 0.6mm wire.
Thanks
John

You can use any brand of 0.6 wire, doesn't need to be clarke.
Machine mart or any local supplier of welding equipment will sort you out.

The spools are standard sizes, check the docs of your welder to see how big a spool it can take. It'll certainly use .5kg one's have a look on mig welding.co.uk for links to good suppliers.
