S279512-027 - Hobart Fabcor Edge Ni1 .045 Metal-Core Wire 50lb Spool

Smooth Arc and High Deposition for Heavy Fabrication

Welders looking for a wire that runs smooth and lays down metal fast will appreciate the Hobart Fabcor Edge Ni1. This .045-inch metal-cored wire is built to make your job easier on heavy structural steel and equipment repairs. Unlike solid wire, the metal-cored construction gives you a wider, more fluid puddle that wets out beautifully at the toes, reducing the chance of cold lap and helping you achieve a professional profile with less effort.

If you are welding on heavy equipment, railcars, or mining machinery that operates in the freezing cold, you need a filler metal that won't crack. The Fabcor Edge Ni1 delivers excellent toughness even at sub-zero temperatures, giving you confidence in every bead you lay. It runs cleanly with mixed gases, producing very little spatter and almost no slag to chip away, so you can spend more time welding and less time cleaning up with a grinder.

This 50 lb spool is designed for high-volume work. The wire feeds consistently through standard MIG guns, and the arc stability is top-notch, whether you are running a 75/25 Argon/CO2 mix or a high-argon spray transfer blend. It handles flat and horizontal fillets with ease, allowing you to crank up the wire feed speed and travel faster than you could with solid wire or flux-core.

Ideal for Tough Jobs

Whether you are fabricating chassis components or repairing earthmoving buckets, the Fabcor Edge Ni1 gives you the penetration and strength you need. It's a reliable workhorse for any shop dealing with high-strength low-alloy steels.
