OVERVIEW

Tackle the Toughest Steels with Confidence

When your project demands welds that are as tough as the steel itself, the Hobart Fabco Xtreme 120 is the wire you need in your feeder. Built for the professional welder facing critical high-strength applications, this 1/16-inch flux-cored wire is the go-to choice for welding 100 ksi yield and 120 ksi tensile steels. Whether you are repairing heavy earth-moving equipment, fabricating crane booms, or working on offshore platforms, this wire gives you the mechanical properties required to ensure safety and durability in the harshest environments.

One of the standout features of the Fabco Xtreme 120 is its all-position playability. We know that in the real world, you can't always weld in the flat position. This wire is formulated with a slag system that sets up fast, giving you excellent puddle control when welding vertical-up or overhead. You won't have to fight the puddle to keep it from dripping, allowing you to focus on laying down a sound, defect-free bead. Plus, it runs on straight CO2, which is widely available and helps cut down on gas costs without sacrificing the arc quality you expect from a Hobart product.

Moisture is the enemy of high-strength welding, leading to hydrogen cracking that can compromise a job. Hobart takes this seriously by packaging the Fabco Xtreme 120 in vacuum-sealed foil bags (VPSP). When you crack open a fresh spool, you know you are getting factory-fresh wire that is dry and ready to perform. The wire feeds smoothly through standard liners and guns, minimizing bird-nesting and downtime. With easy slag release and a smooth arc, it reduces operator fatigue and cleanup time, letting you move on to the next pass faster. For welds that absolutely cannot fail, trust the Xtreme 120 to hold it all together.

Why Welders Choose Fabco Xtreme 120:

  • High Strength: Matches the strength of T-1 and other Q&T steels.
  • All-Position Control: Great for vertical and overhead welds on fixed structures.
  • Reliable Packaging: Vacuum packing keeps the wire fresh and low-hydrogen.
  • Cost-Effective: Designed to run on 100% CO2.
