Self-Shielded Flux-Cored Wire
Flux-cored arc welding (FCAW or FCA) is a semi-automatic or automatic arc welding process. FCAW requires a continuously-fed consumable tubular electrode containing a flux and a constant-voltage or, less commonly, a constant-current welding power supply. An externally supplied shielding gas is sometimes used, but often the flux itself is relied upon to generate the necessary protection from the atmosphere, producing both gaseous protection and liquid slag protecting the weld. The process is widely used in construction because of its high welding speed and portability.
FLUX-ARC - Flux-Cored Welding Wire by Longevity
Introduction
Longevity flux-cored .030" Diameter Welding Wire E71T-GS requires no shielding gas and is particularly suited for welding on thin gauge mild and galvanized steels in all positions. The use of DC straight polarity minimizes the risk of burn through. While the solid wire, E71T-GS may offer somewhat better bead appearance and less spatter, the elimination of the need for shielding gas is cost saving and makes the E71T-GS appealing, particularly in outdoor welding applications.
Features:
• E71T-GS Self-Shielded, Flux-Cored Wire - no shielding gas needed
• .030" wire diameter
• Excellent for general purpose carbon steel welding applications.
• Works well on galvanized steel
• All-position, single or multiple passes
