On two numbers: the rod diameter against the metal thickness, thinner metal taking thinner rods, and the class for the character, with 6013 the general purpose choice. The diameter and class print on every packet, so matching the old packet is the quickest route.

The wire must match the contact tip bore and the feed rollers, so the size already in the machine is the size to stay with, 0.6 or 0.8mm on most light MIG sets. Reels here run from 700g up to 5kg in both sizes.

Flux cored wire runs in most MIG machines but typically on reversed polarity, so the torch and earth connections swap over; the machine manual confirms the change. The 450g and 5kg flux cored packs here are 0.8mm.

By tip colour and work: ceriated as the general purpose modern choice, zirconiated for AC aluminium work, thoriated the traditional DC steel type, all here in 1.6 and 2.4mm packs of ten at 150mm length.

Yes, matched by the cutter: packs are listed for the 03357, 03358, 70058 and 70066 machines among others, electrodes and nozzles sold alongside each other for the same cutter.

Damp rods do that: arc electrodes take on moisture in storage, and the cure is dry storage and warming the rods before use. Rods kept sealed in their 2.5kg packs stay usable far longer.

An electrode is picked on two numbers: the rod diameter against the thickness of the metal, and the class that sets how it runs. That rule holds across the shelf, from the 2.0, 2.5 and 3.2mm arc rods in 2.5kg packs through to the consumables for every other process here, 145 lines from the Sealey, SIP and Draper ranges.

MIG wire runs its own logic: the wire diameter must match the tip and the feed setting, with 0.6 and 0.8mm the light machine sizes, on reels from 700g to 5kg. Solid mild steel wire welds under gas; the flux cored packs are the gasless route, carrying their own shield in the wire and usually running reversed polarity, in 450g and 5kg packs.

The TIG and plasma corner picks by code. Tungstens come ceriated, thoriated and zirconiated in 1.6 and 2.4mm packs of ten at 150mm length, the tip colour naming the type, and plasma cutter electrodes are matched to their machine, the 03357 and 70066 among the listed cutters, sold in packs beside their nozzles.

The specialist tail is small but exact: spot welder electrodes matched to the SR machines, carbon rods, connectors and wavy wire for heat shrinking dents, ignition electrodes, and the yellow twist grip holders that carry the rod on the arc side. Each listing names its size, pack and machine where one applies. Rods themselves ask one care: kept dry and sealed, they strike cleanly, while damp rods spit until they are warmed through. A photo of the old packet over WhatsApp on 07754288583 identifies anything unmarked, and the tips and nozzles shelf next door carries the matching bore for every wire size here.
