Why choose this cored wire?
FCW M700 is a high-performance metal-cored wire designed for welding unalloyed and low-alloy steels. Its exceptional yield, arc stability and deposit quality make it a benchmark solution for high-productivity applications.
The advantages of the FCW M700 :
-Maximum productivity: thanks to a higher deposition rate than solid wire, the FCW M700 welds faster, while maintaining excellent bead quality.
-Excellent arc behavior: easy priming, stable arc, even wetting, ideal for long, continuous welds.
-Very low spatter rate: reduces cleaning operations and improves part finish.
-Ideal for automated or robotized welding: its regularity and fluidity in continuous wire form make it the perfect consumable for modern industrial installations.
-Good mechanical strength: the deposited metal offers good properties, including impact strength (KV), while remaining easy to machine.
-Less welding fumes: improves working conditions and safety at the workstation.
