New Hobart Brothers Flux-Cored Wire Designed for Welding High-Strength Steels



Provides excellent low temperature impact toughness
Ideal for offshore and structural applications
Offers 100 - 110 ksi tensile strength

TROY, Ohio. - Hobart Brothers introduced a new welding wire designed for welding high strength steels that require good low temperature impact toughness. The new Hobart® FabCO® 107G all-position, gas-shielded flux-cored wire offers a tensile strength in the 100 to 110 ksi range in the as-welded or the post-weld heat-treated (PWHT) condition and is ideal for welding A515, A710, EQ56 and similar HSLA and Q&T steels found in offshore and structural applications. The wire can also be used to weld 4130 chrome-moly or 8630 nickel-chrome-moly pipes, and provides excellent strength and toughness after PWHT (minimum 20 ftlbs at -20 Fahrenheit). Hobart Brothers offers the wire in two diameters: 0.045- and 0.052 inches.

Like other Hobart Brothers filler metals, the FabCO 107G wire has a smooth, stable arc that produces an excellent bead profile and helps to minimize downtime for rework associated with quality issues. The wire also produces low spatter levels and has an easy-to-remove slag to help increase productivity and reduce post-weld cleanup. To minimize the risk of cracking, the FabCO 107G wire also features low diffusible hydrogen levels (3.7 ml/100g with 100 percent CO2 for the 0.045-inch wire and 4.3 ml/100g with 100 percent CO2 for the 0.052-inch wire).

Hobart Brothers' FabCO 107G meets NACE MR0175 application requirements for both chemistry and hardness, as well as specifications for an AWS E101T1-GC H8 classification.
