OVERVIEW

Boost Productivity with Hobart Fabco RXR

When your project involves heavy steel that isn't perfectly clean, the Hobart Fabco RXR .045" flux-cored wire is your go-to solution. We know that in the real world, you don't always have time to grind every inch of steel down to shiny metal. That's where Fabco RXR shines. It is packed with extra deoxidizers that fight through rust and mill scale, letting you lay down solid, porosity-free welds without the headache of extensive prep work. Whether you are repairing heavy farm machinery or fabricating structural beams, this wire helps you get the job done faster.

This wire is designed strictly for flat and horizontal welding, which allows it to run very hot and fast. You will appreciate the fluid puddle and the deep penetration it provides, giving you confidence in the strength of your joints. One of the best features for the welder is the slag release. After you lay down a bead, the slag often peels up by itself or comes off with a light tap, saving you from aggressive chipping and wire wheeling between passes. This means you spend more time welding and less time cleaning.

Optimized for 100% CO2 gas, the Fabco RXR offers an economical shielding solution while maintaining a smooth, stable arc. The 33lb spool size is perfect for shop use, minimizing changeovers. If you are looking for a wire that combines high deposition rates with a forgiving arc on dirty steel, the Hobart Fabco RXR is the reliable choice for your heavy-duty fabrication needs.
