When your project involves high-strength steel that simply cannot fail, Hobart Fabco 95K2 is the wire you reach for. This 1/16-inch flux-cored wire is built for the heavy hitters—shipyards, offshore rigs, and heavy machinery repair. If you are welding steels like HY-80 or T-1 (A514), standard wires won't cut it. You need the extra tensile strength and crack resistance that Fabco 95K2 provides. Its basic slag system is the secret sauce, producing weld deposits that are incredibly tough and resistant to cracking, even when the temperature drops.
Welders will appreciate the peace of mind that comes with using a low-hydrogen wire. The Fabco 95K2 is engineered to keep hydrogen levels low, which is your best defense against under-bead cracking in thick, restrained joints. While basic slag wires can sometimes be tricky, Hobart has balanced this formula to offer a stable arc and manageable puddle control. You can run it with straight CO2 for deep penetration and economy, or switch to a 75/25 Argon/CO2 mix for a smoother arc and reduced spatter. It handles out-of-position work reliably, so you aren't limited to flat welds.
This 33lb spool is designed for serious fabrication work. The 1/16-inch diameter means you can lay down metal fast, filling large bevels and heavy fillets efficiently. Whether you are repairing an excavator boom or fabricating structural beams for a bridge, the Fabco 95K2 gives you the confidence that your welds will hold up to the abuse. It’s the professional choice for critical welds where strength and safety are non-negotiable.
