FCW S RW-O
Stainless flux cored wire for open-arc welding
Description & applications
· Stainless flux cored wire for open-arc welding
· Austenitic deposit with exceptional cracking resistance
· Easy slag removal, excellent bead appearance
· High radiographic quality
· High productivity compared to stick electrodes and solid wires
· May be used outdoors, even under difficult atmospheric conditions
APPLICATIONS
FCW S RW-O is designed for joining rails. It is also suitable for cladding, repairs and assembly work on
stainless steels under worksite conditions. Good quality welds are obtained, even in windy conditions.
Examples
Ductile assembly of carbon steel rails
Buffer layer before hardfacing 14% Mn steel, hardenable steels and steels of unknown composition
Welding and cladding of components undergoing metal-to-metal abrasion accomplanied by impacts
Assembling dissimilar metals (14%Mn to stainless, CMn to stainless etc)
Repair work where high strength and toughness is required
Armouring steels
