Gas-Shielded Flux-Cored Wire



The FabCO 85HXP offers high wire feed speed potential, increasing deposition rates and travel speeds and improving productivity on thicker materials.

Hobart has announced its FabCO 85HXP gas-shielded flux-cored wire. Offering high wire feed speed potential, the wire helps to increase deposition rates and travel speeds to improve productivity, particularly when welding thick materials - up to 6" to 8". It is designed for for flat and horizontal welding of earth moving equipment, non-alloyed and fine grain steels, as well as for heavy fabrication applications and the manufacture of equipment for use in severe service conditions.

FabCO 85HXP wire features a basic slag system that provides increased toughness, along with enhanced low temperature impact strength. Low hydrogen levels (3.0 ml per 100 g of weldment) help mitigate cracking risks and costly rework. The wire operates with 100% CO2 and has an American Welding Society (AWS) classification of E70T-5CJ H4.

Hobart is offering the FabCO 85HXP wire in 3/32" diameter on 50 lb. coils.
