Gas-shielded wires provide improved weldability and upgraded packaging
Cleveland
- Lincoln Electric® offers new UltraCore® stainless steel flux-cored, gas-shielded wires available in commonly used austenitic grades for flat and all-positional applications. The new wires are preferred by welders for the polished appearance of the weld deposits, ease of welding out-of-position and smooth wire feeding. Sheena Suvak, senior product manager, alloys, Lincoln Electric stated, 'Flux-cored wires can provide great deposition at high wire feed speeds; given the nature of welding stainless, we knew ease of use was imperative. The new UltraCore flux-cored stainless wires have a smooth arc characteristic that produces minimal spatter. Our fast freezing slag design creates an easy out-of-position welding experience.' Designed with the welder in mind, UltraCore stainless steel wires deliver improved weldability characteristics, including:
Easy out-of-position welding
Smooth arc with minimal spatter
Polished weld bead appearance
Reduces post-weld cleaning
Wide operating range
The upgraded packaging includes the following:
Precision layer wound
Steady spool payoff
Consistent wire feeding
Vacuum-sealed foil bag
Moisture-resistant package
New larger 33 lb spool package size
Less changeover
More arc time
Testing indicates UltraCore wires exhibit significantly greater arc stability over the length of the weld. The weld beads have minimal discoloration compared to the competition.
