Hobart Fabshield XLR-8 Self Shielded Flux Cored Wire

Hobart Fabshield XLR-8 Flux Cored Wire Low hydrogen T-8 self-shielded, all positional flux cored wire, producing a stable arc and flat bead profile, especially suited for vertical-up welds at high currents with excellent mechanical properties and a tensile strength of 490 MPa. Capable of depositing X-ray quality welds, making it highly suitable for critical welding applications requiring a high degree of crack resistance due to its low diffusible hydrogen levels, less than 6.7ml per 100g of weld metal deposited. XLR-8 has been designed for single and multi-pass welding applications with improved productivity in out of position welding, offering high impact strength of (42J) at sub zero temperatures to -40˚C. Features Welds out of position at high currents Low hydrogen weld deposit Excellent slag removal No shielding gas required Conformances and Approvals AS/NZS IS0 17632-B - T492T8-1NA-U H10 AWS A5.20: E71T-8JD H8 Approvals: ABS, AWS D1.8, CE, CWB, DNV-GL Applications: General fabrication Shipbuilding Railcar fabrication Single or multi-pass welding Storage and pressure vessels Heavy-gauge sheet meta Non-alloyed and fine grain steels Available Options and Part Numbers Part Number Diameter (IN) Diameter (MM) Package Base Metal Welding Process Welding Position S225719-043 1/16 1.6 33 Lb (15 Kg) VCI Packaged Spool mild steel FCAW (flux cored) flat/horizontal, vertical-up, overhead S225719-079 1/16 1.6 12 Lb (5.4 Kg) VCI Packaged Spool mild steel FCAW (flux cored) flat/horizontal, vertical-up, overhead S225719-083 1/16 1.6 15 Lb (6.8 Kg) VCI Packaged Spool mild steel FCAW (flux cored) flat/horizontal, vertical-up, overhead S225719-082 1/16 1.6 20 Lb (9 Kg) VCI Packaged Spool mild steel FCAW (flux cored) flat/horizontal, vertical-up, overhead S225724-043 0.072 1.8 33 Lb (15 Kg) VCI Packaged Spool mild steel FCAW (flux cored) flat/horizontal, vertical-up, overhead S225724-083 0.072 1.8 15 Lb (6.8 Kg) VCI Packaged Spool mild steel FCAW (flux cored) flat/horizontal, vertical-up, overhead S225724-082 0.072 1.8 20 Lb (9 Kg) VCI Packaged Spool mild steel FCAW (flux cored) flat/horizontal, vertical-up, overhead S225724-V14 0.072 1.8 50 Lb (22.7 Kg) VCI Packaged Coil mild steel FCAW (flux cored) flat/horizontal, vertical-up, overhead S225725-043 5/64 2 33 Lb (15 Kg) VCI Packaged Spool mild steel FCAW (flux cored) flat/horizontal, vertical-up, overhead S225725-082 5/64 2 20 Lb (9 Kg) VCI Packaged Spool mild steel FCAW (flux cored) flat/horizontal, vertical-up, overhead
