DUAL SHIELD FC 717

Dual Shield FC-717 is an all-position flux cored wire.

Features

Dual Shield FC-717 is an all-position flux cored wire. The unique slag system makes it suitable for either 75% Argon/25% CO2 or CO2. The performance characteristics produce low spatter, smooth stable arc and flat to convex bead shape. The wide operating parameters make it suitable for a variety of material thicknesses. Dual Shield FC-717 is designed to weld mild and medium carbon steels. This wire is suitable for structural steel fabrication, storage tank construction, and earth moving and material handling equipment.
