Metal-Cored Wire Reduces Time Spent on Non-Value-Added Tasks
FabCOR Edge metal-cored wire from Hobart is ideal for robotic and mechanized welding, heavy equipment manufacturing, agriculture, transportation and mining applications, and for welding non-alloyed and fine grain steels.
Small Steps, Big Savings: Filler Metal Storage & Handling
Here are some insights into proper storage and handling of stick electrodes, solid wires and tubular wires (flux-cored and metal-cored) that can help you achieve the best welding performance, minimize downtime and reduce operating costs.
ESAB Acquires Sandvik Welding Wire Business
The $55 million operation includes solid welding wire and rods, flux-cored wire, stick electrodes, strip electrodes, flux, thermal spray wire and weld finishing chemicals.
New Lincoln Electric Welding Technology & Training Center to Open in January 2018
This 100,000+ sq ft building doubles their welding education capacity and will be one of the most advanced facilities of its kind.
Nickel Alloy Welding Wire for Trouble-Free, High Quality Work in Demanding Environments
Innovative nickel alloys from Sandvik Materials Technology achieve greater consistency between heats and batches and represent a real milestone for welding applications.
How Tungsten Electrode Grinding Helps Improve TIG Weld Quality
The Huntingdon Fusion TEG-1000 Tungsten Electrode Grinder from COB Industries sharpens electrodes correctly for perfectly ground and polished tips that enable consistent, repeatable arc performance and improved TIG welding quality.
Welding Wires that Help Avoid Downtime and Operate More Efficiently
NS Plus copper-coated carbon steel, NS CopperFree carbon steel, Satin Glide stainless steel, Alumi Glide aluminum and Tru Core flux core and metal core welding wires from National Standard have excellent feedability and reduce smoke and spatter to increase welding productivity.
ESAB Initiatives Support Students and Careers in Metalworking
WeldItForward, the Paley-James Project and Metal Mentors all support secondary and post-secondary students in technical education, manufacturing and engineering programs.
Understanding Deoxidizers in Filler Metals
Selecting a filler metal with added deoxidizers can minimize your costs by reducing non-value-added tasks, such as pre-weld cleaning and grinding, while also providing the quality you need. Here are some insights into filler metals that offer both the performance and mechanical and chemical properties you need to gain the best results.
Advanced Filler Metals for Aluminum MIG Welding, Stainless Steel and Gas-Shielded Flux-Cored Welding
Advanced filler metals from Hobart Brothers are ideal for aluminum MIG welding, stainless steel, gas-shielded flux-cored welding and more.
Understanding AWS Classifications
As with any part of the welding operation, greater knowledge can lead to greater welding performance. Regardless of the filler metal being used for the job – stick electrode, solid wire or flux-cored wire – understanding AWS classifications can help welding operators know the performance that they will gain from a given product and the way it is best used.
