OVERVIEW

Superior Arc Control for High-Strength Steels

For welders tackling high-strength steel projects, the Lincoln Electric Metalshield MC-110 offers a superior welding experience that combines the ease of use of a MIG wire with the penetration and bead profile benefits of a flux-cored wire. This .045" metal cored wire is designed to produce smooth, high-quality welds on 110 ksi yield strength steels without the heavy slag burden associated with traditional flux-cored wires. The arc stability is exceptional, providing a crisp, consistent spray transfer that wets out smoothly at the toes of the weld, reducing the need for grinding to correct profile issues.

The Metalshield MC-110 is engineered to make your job easier. It features low spatter generation, which keeps your nozzle clean and reduces the amount of time spent scraping spatter off the base metal. The "enhanced silicon island management" means that the glass-like silica islands that form on the weld face are centralized and easy to pop off, leaving a clean surface for the next pass or for final inspection. This is a huge advantage when welding multi-pass joints on thick sections where inter-pass cleaning can slow you down.

Beyond playability, this wire gives you the confidence that your welds will hold up in extreme conditions. It is rated for excellent toughness even at temperatures as low as -60°F, making it the go-to choice for repairing heavy machinery, cranes, or offshore structures that face freezing environments. The H4 hydrogen rating adds another layer of security, ensuring your welds are resistant to cracking. Whether you are in the shop or fabricating heavy components, the Metalshield MC-110 delivers the professional results and high-strength performance required for top-tier welding jobs.

Welder-Centric Features:

  • Smooth Arc: Stable spray transfer with minimal spatter.
  • Easy Cleanup: Silicon islands remove easily; minimal post-weld grinding.
  • Great Bead Profile: Wets out flat for excellent tie-in.
  • Cold Toughness: Reliable impact properties for low-temp service.

FAQ

This wire is designed for use with Argon/CO2 mixtures, typically in the M20 range (e.g., 75-90% Argon with the balance CO2) to achieve the specified mechanical properties and arc characteristics.

The AWS classification is E110T15-M20A6-K4-H4, indicating a tensile strength of 110 ksi, metal cored tubular wire, for use with mixed gas, with specific impact and hydrogen properties.

As a metal-cored wire, it produces very little slag compared to flux-cored wires. It produces small silicon islands that are easily removed, minimizing cleanup time.

The wire is capable of producing welds with tensile strengths of approximately 760 MPa (110 ksi).

Yes, it offers excellent low-temperature impact properties, with Charpy V-Notch results capable of exceeding 40 J at -51°C (-60°F).

This wire is designed to be welded using Direct Current Electrode Positive (DCEP), also known as reverse polarity.

This specific product (ED033910) is .045 inches in diameter.

It comes on a 33 lb (15 kg) plastic spool.
