TIG rod quality, small sizes not avilable from the big names

[tigdlo]

I'm looking at buying some 1.0mm and 1.2mm A18 ER70S-6 tig rods but they don't appear to be available from the likes of ESAB, lincoln and bohler. Bohler list 1.2mm but no one appears to stock it. Are there any other manufacturers worth searching for?

Both sizes are available from unbranded or from sif, is sif anygood or just a brand like super 6 that don't make welding rods?

If you stated your location (uk???) in your "Profile Page" someone might offer some spare rods or a possiible local supplier. I could have some spare 1.00 and 1.6 rods, but cant offer because of my location may not be close to you .....

Nothing wrong with Sif rods, I use their bronze brazing rods, they work just fine.
