A tubular metal-powder wire option for productive steel fabrication and automated welding.
- Classification
- Example: AWS A5.18: E70C-6M H4
- Processes
- Metal-cored GMAW (GMAW-C)
- Materials
- Mild steel
How to choose it
Compare deposition, travel speed and total operating cost with solid wire on the actual job. Use the manufacturer's gas and process programme.
Limits and product details
It requires shielding gas. Production benefits depend on equipment, joint preparation and procedure; the wire alone does not establish weld quality.
