OVERVIEW

Maximize Efficiency with Hobart Fabcor 86R

Take your welding productivity to the next level with the Hobart Fabcor 86R metal-cored welding wire. This 3/32-inch wire comes in a 50lb coil, making it the perfect companion for long welding sessions and heavy-duty projects. If you are tired of grinding off mill scale or battling porosity on dirty steel, the Fabcor 86R is the solution you need. It is specially formulated with extra deoxidizers that act as cleaning agents during the weld, allowing you to burn through rust and scale without sacrificing weld quality. This means less prep time and more time welding.

The Fabcor 86R isn't just about handling dirty metal; it's about speed and smoothness. Because it is a metal-cored wire, it offers higher deposition rates than traditional solid MIG wires. You can lay down more metal in less time, which is a huge advantage for thick plate welding in industries like railcar manufacturing and shipbuilding. The arc is incredibly smooth and stable when paired with an Argon/CO2 shielding gas mix, producing a spray transfer that feels effortless to control. Plus, unlike flux-cored wires, there is virtually no slag to chip off between passes, making multi-pass welds faster and cleaner.

Designed for the professional welder, this wire provides excellent bead appearance with flat, smooth contours that require minimal post-weld grinding. The 3/32-inch diameter allows for high amperage welding, ensuring deep penetration and strong fusion. Whether you are working on general fabrication or specialized structural components, the Hobart Fabcor 86R gives you the performance reliability you expect from the Hobart brand. Upgrade your welding consumables today and experience the difference a high-performance metal-cored wire can make in your shop.
