Hobart Brothers (Troy, OH) introduces its FabCO® Hornet gas-shielded, flux-cored welding wire. The general-fabrication welding wire for mild- or low-alloy steels can be used in all positions with either 100% CO2 or a 75% Ar/25% CO2 shielding gas mixture. To increase welding productivity, the wire features easily removable slag and low-spatter levels. The FabCO Hornet wire also produces a low amount of welding fumes, similar to most new wires in its class.
Available in .045-., .052- and 1/16-in. diameters and suitable for either single- or multi-pass applications, the FabCO Hornet welding wire produces a flat bead profile. It also meets the optional H8 diffusible hydrogen requirement.
Classified under American Welding Society code A5.20 as E71T-1C H8, E71T-1M H8, E71T-9C H8 and E71T-9M H8, the welding wire features a tensile strength of between 70,000 and 95,000 psi. Typical impact strength is 75 ft.-lbs. at –20 ° F, when used with a mixed shielding gas. Download full specifications and capabilities at www.hobartbrothers.com.
