When your welding project involves heavy steel plates, structural beams, or equipment that hasn't been perfectly cleaned, the Hobart FabCO RXR is the flux-cored wire you can trust. This 2.5mm wire is a powerhouse for flat and horizontal welding, designed to burn through rust, mill scale, and dirt that would cause porosity in other wires. By using a specialized flux formula rich in de-oxidizers, Hobart ensures that you get sound, crack-resistant welds even on dirty steel, saving you hours of prep time on the shop floor.
Welders appreciate the FabCO RXR for its forgiving nature and excellent runnability. Under 100% CO2 shielding gas, it delivers a smooth, stable arc with deep penetration. The resulting weld bead is flat and uniform, which is critical for multi-pass welds where slag entrapment can be an issue. Speaking of slag, the RXR formula is known for easy slag removal—often peeling off on its own or requiring just a light tap—allowing you to move quickly to the next pass or finish the job without excessive grinding or chipping.
This 60lb coil is sized for serious production environments. The 2.5mm diameter allows for high wire feed speeds and deposition rates, maximizing the amount of metal you can lay down in an hour. Whether you are building railcars, repairing heavy earth-moving equipment, or fabricating structural components for offshore rigs, the Hobart FabCO RXR provides the reliability and speed professional welders demand. It turns challenging fit-ups and less-than-perfect steel into solid, professional-grade joints.
