S650429-002 - Hobart Fabco 105D2 3/32" Flux-Cored Wire, 60lb Coil

High-Performance Manganese-Molybdenum Welding Wire

The Hobart Fabco 105D2 is a premium low-alloy flux-cored wire designed for the most demanding industrial applications. Engineered with a basic slag system, this wire delivers a weld deposit with exceptionally low hydrogen content, significantly reducing the risk of cold cracking in heavy weldments. It is specifically formulated to match the mechanical properties of manganese-molybdenum steels, making it the preferred choice for fabricating and repairing heavy castings and structural components that require tensile strengths in the neighborhood of 100,000 psi.

Industrial fabricators rely on Fabco 105D2 for its ability to maintain high strength and toughness even after post-weld heat treatment (PWHT). Many high-strength wires lose their mechanical edge after stress relief, but the 105D2 chemistry is balanced to ensure integrity is preserved. This makes it an excellent solution for the construction of pressure vessels, heavy earthmoving equipment, and crane components where PWHT is mandatory. The wire operates using 100% CO2 shielding gas, providing deep penetration and a cost-effective shielding solution for large-scale operations.

Supplied in a 60lb coil, this 3/32" diameter wire is intended for heavy-duty industrial wire feeders and mechanized setups. The larger diameter allows for high deposition rates, improving productivity on thick-section joints. While basic slag wires typically require more operator skill regarding puddle control compared to rutile wires, the payoff is superior metallurgical quality. For shops dealing with Mn-Mo castings or critical structural repairs requiring 100ksi tensile strength, the Hobart Fabco 105D2 provides the reliability and performance necessary to meet stringent engineering codes.
