SAW flux made for chrome-moly steels
Hobart has formulated its SWX 160 SAW flux to help improve weld quality on chrome-moly, creep-resistant steels. This neutral, agglomerated, fluoride-basic flux provides a low residual-content weld deposit to help reduce the risk of temper embrittlement in high-temperature applications, making it suitable for power generation, petrochemical refinery, and pressure vessel applications. It is also usable in step-cooling applications and for SAW on a variety of HSLA steels.
The flux provides impact toughness and produces an easily detached slag to minimize postweld cleaning. It is available in 50-lb. excess air evacuation packaging to prevent moisture pickup.
