FabCo XL-525

Description

A rutile flux cored all position wire designed for welding mild and carbon steels, especially when good impact toughness is required at sub zero temperatures.

Ideal for single and multi-pass applications, it delivers outstanding welding performance and produces high quality X-ray clear weld deposit with a bead contour that is flat to slightly convex.

It performs exeptionally well over rust, mill scale and some primers with no pre-cleaning of the steel necessary.

Formula XL-525 has outstanding mechanical properties that resemble those of E7018 MMAW (SMAW) electrodes, plus high operator appeal with low fume levels, low spatter and easy slag removal.

Typical Applications

Recommended for ship building, storage vessels, off-shore structures, earth moving equipment and pipe welding.

Fabshield XLR-8

Description

Low hydrogen T-8 self-shielded, all positional flux cored wire, producing a stable arc and flat bead profile, especially suited for vertical-up welds at high currents with excellent mechanical properties and a tensile strength of 490 MPa.

Capable of depositing X-ray quality welds, making it highly suitable for critical welding applications requiring a high degree of crack resistance due to its low diffusible hydrogen levels, less than 6.7ml per 100g of weld metal deposited.

XLR-8 has been designed for single and multi-pass welding applications with improved productivity in out-of-position welding, offering high impact strength of 42J at sub zero temperatures to -40°C.

Typical Applications

Specifically designed for increased productivity and high deposition rates on challenging structural steel erection, heavy equipment repair, mining equipment, bucket repairs, storage tanks, pipe spooling, ship construction and site work applications.
