11015B - Hobart Megafil 1100M .045 Metal Core Wire 35lb Spool E110C

High-Performance Metal-Cored Wire for Critical Alloys

The Hobart Megafil 1100M is a premium metal-cored welding wire engineered for the fabrication of high-strength, low-alloy (HSLA) steels. With a tensile strength rating of 120,000 psi, this consumable is specifically formulated to match the mechanical properties of demanding materials such as ASTM 514, HY-100, and T1 quench and temper steels. The wire features a seamless copper-coated design that provides superior current transfer and protects the internal flux composition from moisture absorption, a critical factor in maintaining low diffusible hydrogen levels.

Technically, the Megafil 1100M excels in controlling hydrogen-induced cracking, offering diffusible hydrogen levels of less than 4ml per 100g of deposited weld metal. This makes it an optimal choice for applications where cold cracking is a significant concern. The wire operates effectively with a shielding gas mixture of 75-80% Argon and a balance of CO2, providing a stable arc and deep penetration profile suitable for thick-section welding. It meets AWS classifications consistent with E110C specifications, ensuring compliance with rigorous industrial standards for pressure vessels and offshore structures.

The 35lb spool packaging is designed for standard industrial wire feeders, supporting continuous operation in automated or semi-automatic setups. The metallurgical composition is balanced to provide excellent impact toughness even at sub-zero temperatures, ensuring structural integrity in harsh environments. For welding engineers and QA/QC professionals, the Megafil 1100M represents a reliable solution for joining 100ksi yield strength materials without compromising on weldability or safety margins.
