Flux Core Wire
15 years ago
I have used this wire for several years successfully. The wire has been reliable and versatile. There are two types of flux cored wires: gas shielded and self shielded. Gas shielded flux cored wires creates a "shelf" to hold the molten pool when welding overhead or vertically up – you still have to dodge the sparks. This product is self shielding flux cored wire and does not require external shielding gas; the weld pool is protected by gas generated when flux from the wire is burned and will run a little when welding overhead and vertically. I need such a product because it more portable -- it does not require an external gas tank – and with a little practice, I have been able to compensate for any weld drip. Self shielded flux cored wire is also ideal for welding outdoors or in windy conditions.

Awful

Couldn't keep a bead no matter how clean. There was more splatter and more flux covering everything on the metal mane I had a bad spool. Tossed it in the trash

The package box was much too large and the spool came all unwound in the box and the plastic carrier was broken... I could not use anything
No, I do not recommend this product.

I'd buy it again
a year ago
This wire has worked flawlessly for me. It's been years since I've used flux core, but my current project involves thicker steel than what I normally use. Welds are turning out great and spatter is no worse that what I remember is normal for flux core.

Not worth buying
a year ago
I didn't want to believe some of the reviews and was in the middle of a project so bought this. It was completely unusable - spatter everywhere and could not keep a pool going. Was welding 16GA square tubing. Wound up heading to Harbor Freight for the Vulcan that I normally use.

i tried a variety of settings but despite grinding my materials to clean metal and double checking machine polarity i could not get decent welds. This, doesnt seem like a product hobart should put their name on. This has a price premium of excellent wire but does not deliver.
