Flux-cored wire offers low-hydrogen weld deposit
Hobart has introduced FabCO® 750M gas-shielded, flux-cored wire. It is designed to provide low diffusible hydrogen weld deposits on high-strength applications to help minimize the risk of underbead cracking.
The wire is suitable for such applications as welding API 5L Grade X100 pipe; as an overmatch on API 5L Grade X80 pipe; welding HSLA steels; welding ABS EQ 56, 63, and 70 steel; and jackup rig construction. It features low spatter levels and an easy-to-remove slag, the manufacturer reports.
Operating with a shielding gas mixture of 75 to 80 percent argon and a balance of CO2, the wire provides a tensile strength of 121 KSI using a 75/25 shielding gas mixture. It can be used for welding in all positions.
