Product description

– Basic flux-cored wire for gas-shielded arc welding.

– Totally sealed copper wire with high filling coefficient and deposit rate.

– Suitable for single and multi-pass welding of modified 9Cr-1Mo steels.

– Strict control of the composition of the deposited metal ensures mechanical strength, toughness, resistance to oxidation and thermal fatigue, and resistance to high-temperature corrosion.

– Optimum productivity by combining the advantages of tubular and staple-coated wires.

– HDM guaranteed at < 4 ml/ 100g of metal deposited over the entire range of usable parameters.

– No moisture regain, excellent unwinding properties.

Why choose this cored wire?

Welding P91 requires very specific consumables, capable of guaranteeing the mechanical integrity and temperature resistance of this low-alloy steel. Opting for a basic flux-cored wire is an ideal solution for combining metallurgical quality, operational performance and high productivity.

Benefits of FCW B P91 :

Excellent high-temperature resistance: the deposited metal retains its mechanical properties up to 600°C, ideal for applications in thermal, nuclear or industrial power plants.

– Composition perfectly adapted to P91: the basic cored wire enables precise reproduction of the required chemical analysis (Cr-Mo-V-Nb).

-Less cracking: basic slag reduces the risk of hot or cold cracking, a major issue with this steel.

-Excellent weldability: stable arc, even penetration and low spatter rate.

-Excellent controlled delta ferrite content: to guarantee the metallurgical balance required by P91 specifications.

-Increased productivity: higher deposition rate than a coated electrode or solid wire, with better overall yield.
