The purpose of this study was to find out the tensile strength of GMAW welded carbon steel with electric current variation and wire feed rate. The research method used was experimental research with electric current variation of 120 A, 140 A, and 160 A and variation of wire feed rate 4 m/min and 5 m/min. The tensile strength test of sample was done by ASTM E8 / E8M-09 test standard. The result showed that the electric current variation and wire feed rate in welding of carbon steel with GMAW welding gave effect on the value of tensile strength which was varied. The electric current of 120 A and the wire feed rate of 4 m/min obtained the highest tensile strength of 52.67 kgf/mm2 and welding with electric current of 120 A and wire feed rate of 5 m/min obtained the lowest tensile strength of 48.33 kgf/mm2.
