Coreweld 70
Coreweld 70 is a tubular wire containing ingredients primarily comprised of metal powder along with additional arc stabilizers and alloying elements. The net result is a high efficiency (90 to 98%) wire. Arc characteristics, weld metal transfer, spatter levels are improved, while silica islands are minimized with the use of Argon mixtures up to 92% Argon. Due to the high level of iron powder and low slag components, the only slag formed by this wire are small islands of silica. Coreweld 70 was designed for multipass welding in robotic applications where slag removal between passes is difficult. This metal cored product is intended for use on carbon steels having tensile strengths up to 70 ksi (485 MPa). Coreweld 70 wires from .045" up to 1/16" are capable of being welded out-of-position.
