OVERVIEW

High-Performance Welding for Heavy Fabrication

The Hobart Fabco TR-70 is a premium choice for industrial welders seeking efficiency and reliability in heavy-duty applications. This 3/32-inch flux-cored wire is engineered to deliver exceptional results in environments where speed and structural integrity are paramount. Packaged in a substantial 60lb coil, this product is designed to minimize downtime associated with spool changes, keeping your production lines moving and your welders welding. Whether you are working on earthmoving equipment, railcars, or large-scale structural steel projects, the Fabco TR-70 provides the consistency required for high-volume fabrication.

One of the standout features of this wire is its high deposition rate. By depositing more metal in less time, it allows shops to meet tight deadlines without sacrificing quality. The wire is formulated to run smoothly with 100% CO2 shielding gas, which is a cost-effective solution for many industrial setups. Operators will appreciate the low smoke and spatter levels, which not only improve visibility of the weld pool but also reduce post-weld cleanup time. The arc stability is excellent, providing a comfortable operating experience that reduces fatigue during long shifts.

The Fabco TR-70 is specifically optimized for flat and horizontal welding positions. This focus allows for a fluid puddle that wets out evenly, creating professional-looking beads with minimal effort. The slag system is designed to cover the weld completely to protect it during cooling, yet it detaches easily—often peeling off on its own—revealing a clean, sound weld underneath. For businesses looking to optimize their welding consumables inventory, this 60lb coil offers a perfect balance of performance, economy, and quality.

Key Benefits for Your Shop
