Hobart’s Octagonal Exacto-Pak welding wire drum reduces need for frequent changeovers

Hobart has introduced its new Octagonal Exacto-Pak (X-Pak) drum for its most popular metal-cored wires, including FabCOR Edge XP and FabCOR 86R. The drum provides consistent, straight-wire payout that nearly eliminates the risk of wire tangles and wander.

Suitable for use in robotic and automatic welding, the drum contains 1,000 lbs. of wire in a footprint of 25 by 25 by 34 in. It reduces the need for frequent changeovers and is 100% recyclable at any facility that recycles corrugated containerboard.
