OVERVIEW

Hobart Fabco Triple 7 Flux-Cored Wire

The Hobart Fabco Triple 7 is a premium gas-shielded flux-cored wire designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial fabrication and structural steel projects. Engineered for versatility and performance, this 1/16-inch wire (SKU S246319-023) is supplied in a 33 lb (15 kg) spool, making it an economical choice for high-volume welding operations. It is formulated to perform exceptionally well with both 100% CO2 and 75% Argon/25% CO2 shielding gas mixtures, providing flexibility depending on your shop's available gas supply and specific welding requirements.

One of the standout features of the Fabco Triple 7 is its fast-freezing slag characteristics. This property significantly enhances its capability for all-position welding, allowing operators to deposit high-quality welds in flat, horizontal, vertical-up, and overhead positions without sacrificing bead appearance or integrity. The slag is also designed for easy removal, which reduces post-weld cleanup time and improves overall productivity in the workshop.

Industries such as shipbuilding, heavy equipment manufacturing, and general structural fabrication rely on the Fabco Triple 7 for its consistent mechanical properties. It delivers high impact strength even at low temperatures, ensuring that welds remain durable and reliable under stress. Josef Gas supplies this high-quality Hobart consumable to ensure your welding projects meet the highest standards of safety and efficiency.
