Advantages of Different Welding Rods

Extreme Wear Resistance​

Compared with steel, super-hard materials have a service life that is 2 to 5 times longer, thereby significantly reducing replacement costs in abrasive environments

Corrosion and High Temperature Resistance

Can withstand extreme environments and increase production by 15% to 30%.

Fast Deposition & Easy Welding

High melting efficiency Compared to standard welding wire, welding time can be reduced by up to 40%.

Zero Cracking & Longevity

Advanced alloy formula ensures crack-free welds, extending equipment lifespan by 2-3X.

Self-Shielded Flux Cored Welding Wire

  Self-shielded arc welding is a welding method that uses flux-cored wire without shielding gas. The gas generated by the wire itself during welding protects the quality of the weld. Substances that absorb oxides and impurities are added to the self-shielded flux-cored wire to ensure the quality of the weld. Since this type of welding does not require shielding gas, it is mainly suitable for welding operations on site and outdoors.

FAQ
