OVERVIEW

Smooth Arc and Rust-Busting Performance

If you are looking for a flux-cored wire that runs smooth and isn't afraid of a little rust, the Hobart Fabco RXR is a legendary choice among professional welders. This 5/64-inch wire is built to make your life easier when welding flat and horizontal fillets on heavy steel. We all know that in the real world, steel isn't always shiny and clean. That's where Fabco RXR shines. It is loaded with deoxidizers that act like cleaning agents in the puddle, eating up mill scale and rust so you don't have to grind every inch of steel down to bare metal before you strike an arc.

Running this wire with 100% CO2 gives you a deep, biting arc that ensures you are getting good fusion into the root of the joint. Despite the deep penetration, the arc remains stable and consistent, giving you excellent control over the puddle. One of the things welders love most about the Fabco RXR is the slag release. There is nothing worse than hammering away at stubborn slag, but with this wire, the slag often curls up and peels off on its own as it cools. This leaves you with a clean, professional-looking bead that requires very little cleanup.

The bead profile is typically flat, which is perfect for multi-pass welds where you need to stack beads without worrying about high crowns or valleys trapping slag. It wets out nicely at the toes, reducing the risk of cold lap or undercut when your settings are dialed in. Whether you are welding on heavy farm equipment, building structural frames, or working on railcars, this wire delivers the performance you need to get the job done right and fast.

This 60lb coil is designed for serious fabrication work, giving you plenty of wire to keep the arc on without constant spool changes. Just make sure your feeder is set up for coils and you have the right drive rolls for 5/64" flux-cored wire. With Hobart Fabco RXR, you get the reliability of a top-tier brand combined with the forgiving characteristics that make a long day of welding a lot more manageable.
