Description

Böhler Welding seamless cored wires carry all general productivity advantages brought along by the cored wire product design, when compared with solid wires. At equal wire diameters, the current conducting cross section of cored wires is smaller and, therefore, resistance heating in the sheath (I2R effect) is higher at the same welding current. This translates into a higher wire melt-off rate and – depending on cored wire type (flux- or metal-cored) – in higher deposition rates than with solid wires.
