OVERVIEW

Experience Cleaner Welds with Hobart FabCOR Edge

For professional welders who take pride in the appearance of their work and the speed of their production, Hobart FabCOR Edge .045" metal-cored wire is a game-changer. If you are tired of spending half your day chipping slag or grinding off stubborn silicon islands before the paint shop will accept your parts, this wire is the solution you have been looking for. Hobart has designed the FabCOR Edge specifically to tackle the "cleanup" bottleneck. When you run this wire, you will notice immediately that the bead comes out clean, smooth, and virtually free of those glassy silicon deposits that usually gather at the toes of the weld.

Beyond just looking good, this wire runs beautifully. It offers a smooth, soft arc that feels stable in your hand, giving you the confidence to increase your travel speed without worrying about undercut or erratic arc wander. Because it is a metal-cored wire, you get the high deposition rates that help you put down more metal in less time compared to solid wire, but with the ease of use you expect from a premium Hobart consumable. It wets out perfectly at the edges, creating that desirable "stacked dimes" look with minimal effort, even on heavy structural steel or agricultural equipment.

This 33lb spool is designed for flat and horizontal welding, making it perfect for shop fabrication where you can position your work for maximum speed. You will need a shielding gas mix rich in Argon (at least 75%), which helps keep spatter to an absolute minimum. Whether you are welding chassis frames, heavy machinery, or general structural components, FabCOR Edge helps you get the hood down, the weld done, and the part out the door faster. Less grinding means less fatigue for you and higher productivity for your shop.

FAQ

This wire is classified as E70C-6M-H4 according to AWS standards.

It is recommended to use a mixture of Argon and CO2, specifically between 75% and 95% Argon.

The wire diameter is 0.045 inches.

No, FabCOR Edge is specifically designed to have very few silicon islands, making cleanup for painting much faster.

This wire is recommended for welding in the Flat and Horizontal positions.

This product comes on a 33lb spool.

This is a metal-cored wire, which combines the high deposition of flux-cored with the efficiency of solid wire.

H4 means the wire produces very low hydrogen levels, reducing the chance of cracks forming in the weld as it cools.
