Welding Rods, Wire and Electrodes
Metal-Cored Wires suit low alloy steel welding applications.
Press Release Summary:
Available in .045-.052 in. diameters, Tri-Mark® Metalloy® Vantage(TM) D2 is suited for single pass fillet welds, and produces weld toe lines almost completely free of silicon deposits. Tri-Mark Metalloy 80D2, offered in .045, .052, and 1/16 in. diameters, is suited for multi-pass welding and can be used on multiple types of weld joints and materials. When used with higher content Argon shielding gas blends, such as 90% Ar/10% CO2, both provide optimal wet-in and virtually no spatter.

Hobart Brothers Offers Metal-Cored Wires for High-Strength, Low Alloy Steel
-High deposition rates compared to equivalent solid wires
-Provide excellent wetting action
-Fast travel speeds help improve productivity
TROY, Ohio. January 12, 2009-Hobart Brothers offers two gas-shielded metal-cored welding wires designed to improve weld quality and reduce downtime on high-strength, low alloy steel welding applications. Compared to equivalent ER80S-D2 solid welding wires, Tri-Mark® Metalloy® Vantage(TM) D2 and Tri-Mark Metalloy 80D2 wires provide higher deposition rates, better wet-in and faster travel speeds for greater productivity. Both also provide the necessary mechanical properties to match the challenging needs of heavy equipment manufacturing and structural parts applications.
The Metalloy Vantage D2 welding wire produces weld toe lines almost completely free of silicon deposits and with little to no spatter, reducing time spent for parts preparation and minimizing post-weld cleanup prior to painting or coating. The wire is especially well suited for single pass fillet welds, and when used with higher content Argon shielding gas blends (e.g. 90% Ar/10% CO2), Metalloy Vantage D2 provides excellent wet-in and virtually no spatter. The wire is available in .045- and .052-inch wire diameters.
The Metalloy 80D2 metal-cored welding wire is particularly well suited for multi-pass welding and can be used proficiently on multiple types of weld joints and materials. Like the Metalloy Vantage D2, this wire provides excellent mechanical properties, especially when used with Argon-rich (90% Ar/10% CO2) shielding gas mixtures. The Metalloy 80D2 also provides good wet-in and low spatter levels compared to equivalent solid wires, and is available in .045-, .052- and 1/16-inch wire diameters.
