S651343-008 - Hobart SubCOR 92-S 1/8" SAW Wire 600lb Drum

High-Performance Metal-Cored Submerged Arc Wire

The Hobart SubCOR 92-S is a premium low-alloy composite metal-cored electrode specifically engineered for submerged arc welding (SAW) in critical high-strength applications. Unlike traditional solid wires, the metal-cored design of the SubCOR 92-S allows for higher current densities and superior deposition rates, making it an excellent choice for industries requiring both speed and mechanical integrity. This wire is formulated to meet the rigorous chemical requirements of AWS A5.23 class M1, ensuring consistent metallurgical properties in the weld deposit.

Designed for welding high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels, the SubCOR 92-S delivers tensile strength levels exceeding 80 ksi, providing the durability needed for demanding structural projects. It is suitable for both single and multiple pass welding procedures, offering versatility across various joint configurations and plate thicknesses. When paired with recommended submerged arc fluxes, this electrode produces smooth, sound welds with excellent bead appearance and slag release, reducing post-weld cleaning time and rework.

This product is supplied in a substantial 600 lb drum, which is ideal for automated systems and continuous welding operations found in heavy manufacturing environments. The bulk packaging significantly reduces downtime associated with spool changes, thereby increasing overall arc-on time and productivity. Whether used in the fabrication of wind towers, ship panels, or heavy earth-moving equipment, the Hobart SubCOR 92-S provides a reliable, high-efficiency solution for structural welding challenges.

Key technical advantages include its ability to maintain mechanical properties even in high-heat input procedures typical of submerged arc welding. The composite nature of the wire ensures a stable arc and deep penetration, essential for the integrity of heavy-section welds. By choosing Hobart SubCOR 92-S, fabricators can achieve a balance of high productivity and superior weld quality, meeting the stringent standards of modern infrastructure and heavy equipment manufacturing.
