COREWELD C6
Coreweld C-6 is a metal-cored wire designed to provide excellent arc characteristics, high travel speeds and minimal spatter.
Features
Coreweld C6 was developed and “fine-tuned” especially for hand-held, automatic and robotic welding in the automotive industry, as well as rail car manufacturing, structural welding and other similar applications. Never before has there been such a perfect pairing of filler metal and industry requirements for quality, productivity and profitability.
- Exceptionally high travel speeds, critical for automation
- Enhanced productivity that makes it more cost-effective than solid wires
- Improved feedability and arc stability as a result of special lubricants & surface treatment
- Outstanding deposition efficiencies that can exceed 99% at high travel speeds
- Ideal for flat or horizontal fillet welds, particularly in automated welding
- Performs well with Argon/CO2 shielding gas mixes from 75-92% Argon
- Handles rust and mill scale with good sidewall tie-in and wetting
- Broad operating parameters with both pulse and CVCC
- Excellent restart characteristics
- Very few silicon islands
- Lower spatter levels
