FCW 172 (D200 RND) (VAC)

Rutile type flux cored wire, designed for welding fine grained structural steels by using M21 – mix shielding gas. Succesfully used in single and multi-pass welding in steel construction, offshore platform, shipbuilding and pipe laying which need high strength and toughness at low temperatures. Provides weld metal with high toughness, down to -60°C. Diffusible hydrogen content is 5 ml per 100 g deposited weld metal, so highly resistant to cold cracking. Has a stable and quite arc without spatter. Has easily removable slag and generally self removing.
