The Blue Demon Gasless Stainless Steel wire requires all the amps my welder is cranking out and is still forms high welds and does not tolerate contaminants. which like to spatter/popcorn.
I still recommend the product and if they made it .8mm it might have performed better. 240v/160amp is just enough but more would be better...
I had to combine dissimilar metals with the hangers, So what ever welds resulted were more of just getting the job done and holding solid.
But considering its exhaust pipe I'm more concerned with function and longevity...
I'll tack the snorkel and getting finished buy a professional with a TIG welder...(when I get around to it) a job for another time.
