0.8 flux-cored in Clarke 130en?

[jemglen]

Unable to get 0.9mm flux-cored wire to use with my Clarke 130en (local Machine Mart says all their reels have been recalled!).

I'm in the middle of a job and can only find 0.8mm flux-cored SIP stuff at Halfords.

Can anyone tell me if this will work in the Clarke before I waste £15?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

It will work fine.

SIP should be OK. If you can find a welding supplier and get a name brand, you will find it cleaner and easier to use. I use Lincoln wires here.
