OVERVIEW

Hobart Fabco 91K2-C: High-Performance Flux-Cored Wire

The Hobart Fabco 91K2-C is a premium gas-shielded flux-cored wire designed to meet the rigorous demands of heavy industrial fabrication. Packaged in a 33-pound vacuum-packed spool, this 0.045-inch diameter wire ensures factory-fresh performance the moment you open the box. It is specifically formulated to operate with 100% CO2 shielding gas, providing a cost-effective solution for high-volume welding without sacrificing weld quality or mechanical properties.

One of the standout features of the Fabco 91K2-C is its exceptional versatility. It is an all-position wire, meaning it performs reliably whether you are welding flat, horizontal, vertical-up, or overhead. This makes it an invaluable asset in complex fabrication environments like shipbuilding, railcar manufacturing, and offshore platform construction where rotating the workpiece is often impossible. The wire produces a fast-freezing slag that supports the weld puddle in difficult positions, helping operators achieve flat, consistent bead profiles with minimal effort.

Beyond its usability, this wire is engineered for strength and durability. It falls into the 90,000 psi tensile strength class, making it suitable for welding high-strength low-alloy steels. Crucially, it offers excellent mechanical toughness even at lower temperatures, a vital characteristic for structures exposed to harsh, cold environments. Whether you are repairing heavy earth-moving equipment or fabricating structural steel components, the Hobart Fabco 91K2-C delivers the penetration, strength, and impact resistance required for critical welds.

At Josef Gas, we understand that consistency is key in industrial welding. Hobart's manufacturing process ensures that the Fabco 91K2-C feeds smoothly and provides a stable arc with low spatter, reducing post-weld cleanup time. The vacuum packaging further protects the wire from moisture absorption, preventing hydrogen-induced cracking and ensuring that your consumables are ready to perform whenever you are.
