Black Mig spools are the best spools to use for round dia. wire under .030. Use the other spools for larger weights when required.
13” Wood spools are good for jobs over .030 dia. and under 50lbs. 17” Wood spools for larger quantities. Use the other spools when required.
The 14” Coil works best with wire over .050 dia. and the 6” coil works best under the .030 dia. (the 6” inch coil is not for annealed wire).
Black Mig spools for all A286 jobs unless otherwise stated on the order.
15” Fiber spools are the best for flat wire under .040 thick. Use 12” and 24” Black Plastic spools for larger quantities when required.
13” Wood spools for jobs over .040 thick and under 50lbs. 17” Wood spools for larger quantities. Use 24” and 30”spools whenever possible for larger quantities.
