Having used the Blue Demon branded stainless fluxcore wire during my 3" custom exhaust for my van. on much the same type of budget welder 140am 240v...


My only advice is get the thinnest stainless wire gauge. My welder needed to be cranked to 11... and I believe what is .9 wire settled up with a heavy bead though managed to penetrate...


pre heating the job would probably help...


But yes it will do the work it just wont look like a TIG fusion finish.
