Yes all the arc rods I've used lately Norm were the Swec in a 2 kg box for $12.98.
If you buy rods in a lot of 1000 boxes they are $4 to $6 a box.
I bought some stainless arc rods on eBay probably 1 KG and they worked well and were cheap but
no idea of the brand as they were wrapped in a plastic bag.
I see cheap rods on eBay but I would normally look for a brand that I know is ok.
All the cheap places I knew of for rods have closed ,i think I will just go to Bunnings and get the 2kg of Bossweld rods
for $22.98. Maybe I could check a few places that I've been to before but usually find they are no longer there when
I haven't shopped there for a few years.
The new CIG welding helmets was a good find.
Just found Sydney Tools has Gigweld 2.5 mm 2.5 kg rods for $24. If any one knows a good brand that's cheap let me know.
Cheers
Max.
