Why choose ABRAFIL 1?

1. Maximum versatility

  • Compatible with all mild/unalloyed/low-alloy steels (S235, S355, etc.).

  • Can be used for metal construction, sheet metal work, carpentry, tanks, agricultural machinery, etc.

2. Good mechanical performance

  • Offers a tensile strength of approx. 500-550 MPa when welded.

  • Excellent impact resistance down to -20°C (even -40°C with certain protective gases).

3. Very good weldability

  • Contains silicon (Si) and manganese (Mn) for :

    • Better tolerance of light rust or impurities on steel.

    • Promote a fluid, stable melt, with few splashes.

    • Achieve a smooth, aesthetically pleasing bead, especially with Ar/CO₂ gas.

4. Economical

  • Very good value for money.

  • Available in spools of 5, 15 or 250Kg drums
