I did upgrade the wire feeder with one I found on Amazon. Also, I am using a 0.030 tip instead of the 0.035 that came with the machine. Machine is 8 years old and runs better now than when it was new. **Q: can I use this with my 125 amp flux core welder from harbor freight** A: Danny, This wire would be perfect to run in your flux core welding machine! Thank you for your question. **Q: can I use this to solder?** A: By solder you mean electronics? Like motherboards and so? You dont need shade for that but i am sure you can use an auto darkening helmet since it is clear it will stay that way **Q: What is the diameter of the center hole.** A: I believe .030/.8mm and .035/.9mm ## Frequently Bought Together - Forney 42300 Flux Core Mig Wire, Mild Steel E71TGS.030-Diameter, 2-Pound Spool, Silver, Pack of 1 - Forney 37031 Nozzle Gel For Mig Welding, 16-Ounce , White - YESWELDER True Color Solar Powered Auto Darkening Welding Helmet, Wide Shade 4/9-13 for TIG MIG ARC Grind Welding Hood Helmet --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/172739152-forney-42300-flux-core-mig-wire-mild-steel-e71tgs-030](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/172739152-forney-42300-flux-core-mig-wire-mild-steel-e71tgs-030) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-12*
