 In summary, voltage adjustment in gas-less FCAW with flux-cored wire is pivotal in defining the arc length and stability, which in turn influences weld bead geometry, penetration, spatter levels, and slag formation. Understanding these interactions allows for better control over the welding process and ultimately a higher quality weld.

   * **Wire spool size**: 16 x 100 mm diameter (inner x outer) x 44 mm.
+  * **Wire type**: The most common designations are **E71T-11** and **E71T-GS**. The //-11// is a wire for all positions and multi-pass welding while the //-GS// is a //general standard// usually suited for a single pass welding.
   * **Contact tip**: the tip has an M6 thread x 25 mm lenght. The torch consumables (tip and nozzle) should be compatible with the //Binzel standard// MIG torches **MB15**, also labeled as **AK15** by other manufacturers.
   * **Nozle**: 12 mm inner diameter, 52 mm lenght.
