For professional welders seeking a competitive edge in heavy fabrication, the Hobart Fabcor Edge D2 1/16" Metal-Cored Wire delivers outstanding playability and results. The "Edge" series is renowned for its superior arc characteristics, providing a smooth, stable arc that is easy to control even at higher amperages. This 50lb spool is designed to keep you welding longer with fewer changeovers, making it perfect for high-volume production environments found in heavy equipment manufacturing and transportation sectors.
One of the standout features of this wire is its exceptional bead geometry. The metal-cored design ensures excellent wetting action at the toes of the weld, creating a flat, smooth bead profile that blends seamlessly with the base metal. This significantly reduces the need for post-weld grinding and finishing, saving you valuable time and reducing fatigue. Unlike flux-cored wires that leave a heavy slag covering, the Fabcor Edge D2 produces minimal silicon islands that are easily removed, often requiring just a light brushing. This makes it an excellent choice for multi-pass welds where inter-pass cleaning needs to be quick and efficient.
When welding on high-strength steels, you need a consumable that you can trust. The Fabcor Edge D2 provides deep penetration and consistent fusion, reducing the risk of lack-of-fusion defects. Its low spatter generation means your workpieces—and your welding nozzle—stay cleaner, reducing downtime for maintenance. Whether you are welding thick plate for pressure vessels or structural components for earth-moving machinery, this wire offers the high deposition rates of a flux-core wire with the clean efficiency of a solid wire. It is optimized for use with Argon-rich shielding gases, ensuring a clean, hot arc that drives productivity.
