Welding Flux

Flux core stainless steel welding wires contain various materials to facilitate welding process quite unlike gas metal arc welding wires which are solid throughout. There exist two types of flux cores stainless steel wires namely gas shielded & self-shielded. Usage however is decided depending upon nature of the project & budget.
For a speedy arc welding, gas shielded flux cored wires are used as they have got a high disposition rate compared to a solid wire welder. The wire on the contrary would not be able to weld any thinner metal body like that of an automobile.
A self shielded welding wire on the other hand is competent to produce gas shielding that is a protection armour required by both solid & gas shielding welding wires to protect splash of metal. Various self-shielded welding wires are available in market distinctively designed to serve each unique welding positions. Self-shielded flux cored wire with a high disposition rate, cater to welding of only thick metal bodies. This property is quite similar to that of gas shielded flux cored stainless steel wires.
