<strong>FILARC</strong> <strong>flux</strong>- andmetal- coredwelding wiresGuide to using your<strong>FILARC</strong> catalogueContents page 4Previous pageNext pageThe introductory section of this cataloguecontains indexes and tables to assist youin selecting the <strong>FILARC</strong> <strong>flux</strong>- or metalcoredwire most appropriate for yourapplication.The general content pages on pages 4 to6 give an overview of the complete rangeof <strong>FILARC</strong> cored wires categorized inproduct groups, namely for:• non- and low-alloyed steels• high strength steels• creep resisting steels• stainless steels• dissimilar steels• soft-martensitic steels• hardfacing applicationsDirectly behind the <strong>FILARC</strong> PZ 6XXX typenumber, or above a group of wires belongingto the same category, you will find the<strong>flux</strong> formulation, rutile, basic or metalcored,and a short description of the intendedapplication or most characteristicproperty.Further selection guidance is given by thetable on pages 8 to 10, surveying the mostfrequently used international classifications,and on pages 13 to 17, giving thefull list of international approvals.The survey of <strong>FILARC</strong> products in order ofyield strength given on page 11 may behelpful when selecting cored wires from adesign point of view.Pages 18 to 21 show the EN and AWSclassification systems, explaining the codingused in this catalogue for classifyingindividual products.Introduction to the cored wire groupsThese provide general information andadvice on selecting the cored wire(s) mostappropriate for your application. In manycases there will be options which bringextra productivity compared with multi-purposetypes; for example high speed types(<strong>FILARC</strong> PZ 6XXXHS) with extra high filldegree for downhand and standing fillets.Other examples are rutile types with a fastfreezing slag, giving up to 4kg/h depositionrate (100% duty cycle) in vertical-upwelding.The information in the introduction to eachcored wire section will enable you to see indetail where advantageous options exist.Guide to the product data pagesProduct data pages (starting at page 34)are designed for easy access to all dataneeded for design and fabrication. Theyare always presented in the same formatto aid easy comparison.All international classifications are repeateddirectly below the <strong>FILARC</strong> type number,including the classification conformance.The specification of the cored wire is chosensuch that it satisfies the most importantstandard(s).Note the occasional use of the ~ sign (nearest)behind classifications when a wire notfully meets this classification. This mostlyconcerns the chemical composition.The grey identification bar on the right handside of the product pages surveysinternational approvals, but without theirdenotations. Please refer to pages 13 to 172
<strong>FILARC</strong> <strong>flux</strong>- andmetal- coredwelding wiresGuide to using your<strong>FILARC</strong> catalogue,continuedContents page 4Previous pageNext pagefor detailed information. Where an approvalfor a cored wire has been applied for, buthas not been received at the time this cataloguewas published, this is indicated bythe term "pending". Additional approvals fora given cored wire may arise. Contact<strong>FILARC</strong> or ESAB for the latest information.Further down the identification bar, keyinformation is given on weldability. Thewelding positions for which the cored wireis suited are indicated by icons representingfollowing ASME and EN designations:1G/1FPA4GPEElectrogaswelding2GPC4FPD2FPB5G↑PFOther icons used are:Hardnessfrom 3 rdlayeronwards3G↑/3F↑PF5G↓/6G↓PGCeramicbackingroundgroove3G↓/3F↓PG–(cladding)CeramicbackingrectangulargrooveCurrent & polarity are given further down.The preferred polarity is given in boldtypeface when there is an option for bothDC+ or DC –.The description reviews the cored wire'scharacteristics, also its properties andintended applications.Chemical composition gives the upperand lower limit in weight percentage of themain alloying elements in the weld metal.Certificates specifying actual values of allrelevant chemical elements per lot number,can be made available on request.Shielding gas exactly specifies for whichgas compositions the stated mechanicalproperties can be guaranteed, eg. Ar/15-25%CO 2 . This has become necessarybecause EN 439 may specify a widerrange of gas compositions for a specificcategory than the previous standard forwhich the wires were originally tested.M21 according to Euronorm, for example,covers Ar/CO 2 mixtures with 5-25% CO 2 ,whereas the old DIN specified 15-25% CO 2 .Weld metal hydrogen, given for non- andlow-alloyed types, states typical valuesvalid for diameter size 1.2mm. Samples forhydrogen determination are welded at250A and 15mm stick-out, unless statedotherwise (e.g. high speed types). In addition,pages 26 to 29 give detailed informationon the influence of welding parameterson the hydrogen level (acc. EN758) ofseveral individual cored wires.Deposition data give deposition rates inkg/h at 100% duty cycle, for a characteristicshielding gas within the specified compositionrange.All weld metal mechanical properties oftypes for non- and low-alloyed steels areobtained in tests according to the UnifiedRules of the ship classification societies,AWS and EN. Mechanical properties oftypes for high strength and creep resistantsteels are determined according to toAWS 5.29 specifications, and of stainlesssteel types to AWS 5.22.3

<strong>FILARC</strong> <strong>flux</strong>- andmetal- coredwelding wires<strong>FILARC</strong> low-hydrogen cored wiresContents page 4Previous pageNext pageLow-hydrogen from <strong>FILARC</strong> cored wiresIntroductionModern thermo-mechanically treated andaccelerated cooled steels, with low hardenability,provide fabricators with usefulopportunities to avoid preheating whenwelding with low-hydrogen consumables.Generally speaking, cored wires link-upvery well with this development in steelproduction, because they have a muchbetter hydrogen performance than thestick electrodes they are gradually replacingin today's fabrication practice.This better performance is due to theabsence of hygroscopic binders in the fillingof cored wires, resulting in a muchlower sensitivity to moisture re-absorption.Cored wires generally do not require climatecontrolled storage or re-baking, or aspecial vacuum packaging to avoid these,as with stick electrodes. Some manufacturersare nowadays even able to producerutile cored wires well within the lowest ENhydrogen class H5; a property that is stillunthinkable for equivalent rutile stick electrodes.<strong>FILARC</strong> cored wiresProduction of <strong>FILARC</strong> cored wires uses theunique rolling method; a dry productionprocess which avoids hydrogen containinglubricants. No baking is needed to removethese lubricants, so giving <strong>FILARC</strong> coredwires the characteristic shiny surface.<strong>FILARC</strong>'s technology enables the productionof basic, metal-cored and even rutilecored wires with very low weld metalhydrogen values. The product data pages,starting at page 34 give typical hydrogenvalues for all <strong>FILARC</strong> types for normaltemperaturesteels, low-temperature steels,weather resistant steels, high strengthsteels, creep resistant steels, and for (soft)martensitic stainless steels used for hydroturbine components. Unless otherwise statedthe values are valid for the 1.2mm diametersize, determined at 250A and 15mmstick-out length.Metal-cored and basic <strong>FILARC</strong> types generallygive the lowest weld metal hydrogencontent; mostly around 2ml/100g.Rutile types yield somewhat higher values,generally between 3 and 4ml/100g, but stillwell within EN785 class H5.Hydrogen parameter envelopeThe hydrogen content of weldments maydiffer from the levels obtained under thestandardised test conditions mentionedabove, because welding parameters havea substantial influence. The weld metalhydrogen content increases with higherwelding currents and with shorter stick-outlengths.The influence of welding parameters onthe hydrogen level is visualised in socalled hydrogen parameter envelopes.Next page, this envelope is shown for the<strong>FILARC</strong> PZ 6113; an all-position rutile typeused accross Europe for shipbuilding andgeneral construction. Since it is a wire thatcan be used in both Ar/CO 2 and CO 2 ,envelopes are shown for both gases.It is shown that the H5 limit is only slightlyexceeded for welding currents above 250Aand a short stick-out length; so when usingthe most unfavourable parameter setting.And this is only the case with Ar/CO 2 .The use of CO 2 results in even lower values,which is a commonly observed phenomenonin cored wire welding. The dia-22

It is used in Ar/CO 2 mixedgas. The hydrogen parameter envelope ofthis type confirms a very secure performance,well below the H5 limit for the fullrange of applicable welding currents. Identicalenvelopes are valid for the range ofcored wires for high strength steels(PZ 6145 to PZ 6149) and for the basictypes of the range for creep resistantsteels (PZ 6201 to PZ 6205). These wireshave an identical performance, becausethey are based on PZ 6125.All metal-cored types have a hydrogenperformance comparable with <strong>FILARC</strong>PZ 6125.Hydrogen parameter envelope for <strong>FILARC</strong>PZ6125/1.2mm.<strong>FILARC</strong> PZ6138<strong>FILARC</strong> PZ 6138 is a rutile all-position wirespecifically developed for offshore fabrication,where the use of thick-walled materialscoincides with high restraint and threedimensional stresses. Although these conditionscall for a basic low-hydrogen consumablewith appropriate mechanicalproperties, rutile cored wires are preferredin this industrial segment, because of theirsuperb weldability. Next page, we discussthe performance of PZ 6138 in detail,including sensitivity to moisture reabsorptionduring storage in the original packaging,during unprotected exposure on theshop floor, and during welding.Hydrogen values, determined under theabove mentioned standard Euronorm conditionsare statistically between 1.8 and3.5ml/100g deposited weld metal, whereasits hydrogen parameter envelope shows a23
<strong>FILARC</strong> <strong>flux</strong>- andmetal- coredwelding wires<strong>FILARC</strong> low-hydrogen coredwires, continuedContents page 4Previous pageNext pagedependable performance over the completerange of applicable parameters.Another important feature is the resistanceto moisture reabsorption. Moisture pick-upcan take place during long term storage inthe original packaging (shelf life) and duringunprotected exposure on the shopfloorafter opening the packaging.Accelerated shelf life tests under anatmosphere of 80%RH and 26.6°C, a forEurope severe climatic condition equalingan air moisture content of 20mg/m3, revealan initial increase in hydrogen content flatteningout as exposure times lengthen, forboth packed and unpacked wire.Evidently, this condition is unrealisticallysevere. Under normal warehouse conditionsshelf life is regarded as practicallyunlimited, whereas moisture pick-up onthe shopfloor is minimal when care is takento return partly used spools to theiroriginal packaging (see storage recommendations).The sensitivity to the air moisture contentduring welding is tested in a climate roomunder atmospheric conditions of 8, 20 and35mg moisture/m3. The latter equals anextreme tropical condition. As may beexpected from a gas shielded cored wire,PZ 6138 is practically insensitive to the airmoisture content.The same applies to PZ6125. For comparison,a 8016-G basic MMA electrode hasbeen tested as well, showing a substantialincrease in weld metal hydrogen content.The above diagrams reveal why <strong>FILARC</strong>PZ6138 has earned an excellent reputationin offshore fabrication and plays a keyrole in QA programmes aiming at crackfreewelding without, or with minimal preheating.Hydrogen parameter envelope for <strong>FILARC</strong>PZ6138/1.2mm in Ar/20%CO 2 .Accelerated shelf life tests for PZ6138/1.2 exposedpacked and unpacked (80%RH/ 26.6°C).Influence of absolute air moisture content duringwelding for <strong>FILARC</strong> PZ6138, PZ6125 and anE8016-G MMA electrode.24

The resulting thinner metalsheath provides higher resistance heating(I 2 R effect) at the same current, so highermelt-off rates.The range comprises types for <strong>flux</strong>-cored arcwelding (FCAW) and one type for vertical-upelectrogas welding. The range for FCAWcomprises a rutile type, a metal-cored type,as well as a basic type; together covering themajority of fabricators’ requirements.The wires are primarily developed for weldingin the PA position at depostion rates reachinglevels of 15kg/h at 100% duty cycle. As such,they provide over 20% more productivity thanconventional <strong>flux</strong>- and metal cored wires.The wire for vertical-up electrogas welding,PZ 6137EG (basic), allows up to 10m/h travelspeed, with good CVN toughness at -20°Cfor both weld and heat affected zone.Comparison of deposition rates of <strong>FILARC</strong> high speed cored wires (HS) with conventionaltypes.46

Followingis a typical example of its use.Example:Consider a V-joint between two plates;one type AISI 318 (no official type butcommonly used), the other mild steel Fe410, with chemical compositions shown.The composition of the weld pool is governedby the chemical composition of thefiller material and the amount of the parentmetal is calculated by taking a linebetween point C and the filler material'sSchaeffler equivalent and moving the latter30% of the line length towards C, indicatedby points D and D 1 on the diagram.If PZ 6410 (308 type) is selected as thefiller material, resulting point D indicates ahigh chance of martensite formation.Use of PZ 6414 (309L type) as filler material,with resulting point D 1 , will produce theideal weld metal structure: an austeniticmatrix containing some 6% ferrite.Primarily developed for welding armoursteels, PZ 6470 is also a good option forwelding dissimilar steels. Strictly speaking,the Schaeffler diagram is not valid for highmanganese weld metal compositions,although it will rightly indicate a fullyaustenitic weld. Normally, a fully austeniticweld entails a risk of hot cracking.Steel type Chemical composition, % Schaeffler EquivalentC Mn Si Cr Ni Nb Nb Cr eq Ni eqAISI 318 0.062 1.21 0.62 18.2 11.8 2.8 0.64 21.75 14.2Fe 410 0.11 0.4 0.3 – – – 0.45 3.5The Cr and Ni equivalents are plotted on the Schaeffler diagram, next page; AISI 318point A, Fe 410 point B.Cr equiv. = Cr% + Mo% + 1,5 Si% + 0,5 Nb%Ni equiv. = Ni% + 30 C% + 0,5 Mn%metals melted from the two plates.Assuming equal contribution of both parentmetals, the point C midway between Aand B indicates their combined contribution.Under normal welding conditions the parentmetal will dilute the filler material by30%.

<strong>FILARC</strong> <strong>flux</strong>- andmetal- coredwelding wires<strong>FILARC</strong> gas- and self shieldedcored wires for hardfacingContents page 4Previous pageNext pageThe <strong>FILARC</strong> cored wires, described in thissection, provide substantially increasedproductivity when applying wear resistantalloys to surfaces of components subjectto abrasion, impact, heat and corrosion, ora combination of these.Some wires are available either as metalcoredversions using CO 2 or Ar/CO 2shielding gases (PZ 61xx), or rutileversions designed as selfshielding typesfor outdoor use (PZ 63xx).Available wire sizes are 1.2, 1.6 and2.4mm, depending on composition andintended application.Due to the high filling ratios, depositionrates can exceed 10kg/h at 100% dutycycle.Production of equipmentRolled, machined, cast or forged parts canbe hardfaced easily by hand when selectedareas are involved. Deposition rates willbe far higher than with stick electrodes,with further economy gained by avoidingstub losses, and no deslagging whenusing metal-cored wires.For rollers, or larger flat areas, mechanisedoperation can provide substantially increasedproductivity, and no deslagging.Productivity will often exceed submergedarc welding on rollers up to 500mm diameteror higher. The 1.6mm size is usuallyadopted.For large flat areas using broadly weavedruns, the 2.4mm size used at 500 to 600Amay prove most economical.Maintenance and repair workRutile, selfshielding wires avoid the needfor gas supplies and provide depositionrates far exceeding stick electrodes. The1.6mm size can provide horizontal-verticalwelds, also build-up of wear/abrasionresisting patterns on blades, etc.For building-up teeth or other work wherecopper moulds can be employed, the2.4mm size welded with a long stick-outbrings the fastest, most economical deposition.Choice of material depends on the propertiesrequired, in respect to:• Resistance to abrasive wear,i.e. hardness• Impact resistance, i.e. toughness• Resistance to heat and corrosionFlux and metal-cored wires are listed inthe table on page 102-103 together withequivalent stick electrodes and solid MIGwires. They are described in detail onfollowing pages.The chemical and mechanical propertiesdetailed, relate to pure weld metal. Inpractice these figures will be achievedwith the third layer. The first and secondlayer will show lower values, due to dilutionwith the base material. Also, the coolingrate will, in many cases, influence thestructure of the hardfacing metal.100

<strong>FILARC</strong> <strong>flux</strong>- andmetal- coredwelding wiresHealth and safetyContents page 4Previous pageNext pageThe occupational health hazards related to<strong>flux</strong>-cored arc welding, described below,are not very different from those of othermanual and semi-automatic arc weldingprocesses; nor are the precautions weldersshould take to protect themselves.RadiationCored wire welding is often done atcurrents beyond 250A. Radiation is moreintense than with stick electrodes, but it hasroughly the same frequencies, ranging frominfra red to ultra violet. The higher intensitynecessitates the use of darker weldingglasses; typically number 11 or 12. Skinmust be protected against radiation at alltimes.The welding site must be isolated from itssurroundings, for instance by welding curtains.A wire with a low fume emission, willnormally give a more intense radiation. Thisexplains the higher radiation from metalcoredwires.Welding fumesFumes from arc welding consumables consistof various airborne substances (fineparticles or gases) which may presenthealth hazards when inhaled or swallowedin the absence of adequate ventilation andexhaust facilities. The degree of hazard tothe welder depends upon the compositionof the fumes, the concentration in the airthat he is breathing, and the time to whichhe is exposed to it.The chemical composition of the fumes ofwelding consumables, along with extensivesafety information and guidelines, is givenin Safety Data Sheets provided by the manufacturersin accordance with new Europeanrules. In the end of this chapter, youwill find an example of a Safety Data Sheetas provided by <strong>FILARC</strong> Welding Industries.Ceramic backing materials used for rootdeposition do not add to the fumes of weldingconsumables. In fact, it is observed thatfume emission from filler materials is slightlyreduced when welding on ceramic backing.However, attention must be given to stripsthat are attached to the backside of the jointby means of glued aluminium foil. Although,no well researched information is availableabout the toxicity of glue evaporating underthe arc heat, it is wise to treat it as a possiblyhazardous gas and take precautions.The glued aluminium foil used by <strong>FILARC</strong> fortheir ceramic backings, is tested to producenon-toxic fumes.Although not arising from the welding consumableitself, gases like nitric oxide, nitrogendioxide and ozone are produced by thethe heat of the welding arc or its radiation.Especially when using Ar-based mixed gasesor when welding in the short arc mode,radiation can cause a photo-chemical productionof ozone which can enter thebreathing zone of the welder. In the case ofFCAW, ozone formation may occur whenwelding at high currents, or when weldingreflecting materials, and may be increasedwhen using argon rich shielding gases.With FCAW, ozone formation is especiallypronounced when welding in the spray arcmode using shielding gases with a high Arcontent (M12 or M13), or when welding inthe short arc mode (thin plates, root runs,positional welding).Carbon monoxide (CO) may be producedwhen using CO 2 as a shielding gas, or fromthe decomposition of carbonates in <strong>flux</strong>coredwires. In confined spaces, this can leadto CO contents beyond the TLV value; to becounteracted by adequate fume extraction.122
<strong>FILARC</strong> <strong>flux</strong>- andmetal- coredwelding wiresHealth and safety, continuedContents page 4Previous pageNext pageHazards of excessive exposure towelding fumesEffects from excessive exposure to fumesarising from inadequate ventilation maybecome apparent at the time of welding,shortly afterwards, or at some later date.Some of the effects are summarised below,and here it is important to note that workersother than welders may also come into contactwith the products of welding fumes.Irritation of the respiratory tractThis is the effect of dust or fumes on thelining of the respiratory tract and can causedryness of the throat, tickling, coughing,chest tightness, wheezing and difficulty inbreathing. In its most acute form it cancause the lungs to become full of fluid. Theeffects will vary with exposure, concentrationand type of irritant.Metal fume feverThe inhalation of freshly formed metallicoxide such as those of zinc, chromium,nickel, copper and manganese may lead toan acute influenza-like illness termed metalfume fever.Systemic poisoningThis can result from inhalation or swallowingof substances such as fluorides, hexavalentchromium, lead and barium.Long term effectsCertain constituents of welding fumes, likehexavalent chromium, are carcinogenic.FibrosisThis is the formation of fibrous scar tissuein the lungs. It is the result of a reactionbetween dust or fumes with the lung tissue.There are various types depending on thenature of the substance involved and durationof exposure.In all cases of doubt concerning physicalresponse to welding pollutants, medicaladvice should be sought promptly.Fire/explosion hazardWelding consumables are not inflammableunder ordinary conditions and do normallynot present a fire or explosion risk. A fire orexplosion may result, however, when weldingis carried out in the presence of inflammable/explosivematerials.Atmospheric pollutantsIn any welding operation sources of atmosphericcontamination such as coatings,paint, oil, grease or de-greasing agents, maybe present in the welding zone, adding tothe fumes arising from weldingconsumables. Advice regarding the natureand extent of any hazard that might arisedirectly or indirectly from such substancesshould always be obtained from the manufacturerof these products.PrecautionsHazards from welding can be avoided bytaking adequate safety precautions.In providing welders and welding related personnelwith a safe working environment, fabricatorsare guided by national and internationalsafety standards and legislation, suchas The Health & Safety guidance note EH40"Occupational Exposure Limits", issued byThe Welding Manufacturers Association inthe UK.Most safety standards define safe workingconditions by specifying long term exposurelimits in mg/m 3 for the concentration ofa given type of welding fume in the air at awelding site, and, additionally, for the con-123

<strong>FILARC</strong> <strong>flux</strong>- andmetal- coredwelding wires<strong>FILARC</strong> ceramicweld metal supportsContents page 4Previous pageNext pageSince its introduction for shipbuilding, useof ceramic weld metal supports for fast rootpass deposition has spread to bridge building,pressure vessels, general steel componentconstruction and other areas of fabrication.This has been accompanied byincreasing use of <strong>flux</strong> and metal-coredwires to gain optimum productivity.Process advantages are summarised as:• Higher welding currents possible, somuch increased root pass depositionrate.• High quality root runs with dependablepenetration and smooth profile.• Applicable in 1G, 2G, 3G up positions.• Gouging, grinding and sealing of backside are avoided.• Welder qualification easier to acquire.<strong>FILARC</strong> ceramic weld metal supports haveno adverse influence on weld metal compositionand mechanical properties. They aredry and insensitive to moisture absorption,leaving consumables' low-hydrogen performanceunaffected.The <strong>FILARC</strong> range presented here comprisesthe most commonly used types, coveringthe majority of applications in any type ofindustry. The range comprises grey andbrown ceramic blocks/strips.Grey types are of a harder ceramic, with ahigher melting point and a lower slag productionthan brown types. Grey types aremore prone to cracking by thermal expansion,and therefore always need a carrier inthe form of a rail or adhesive strip.Brown types can be applied without a carrierand, in addition, can be cut.Types with a concave groove are employedfor processes producing no or relativelysmall amounts of slag, such as GMAW withsolid wire, and FCAW with basic <strong>flux</strong>-coredor metal-cored wires.Rectangular grooves are needed to accomodatethe higher slag production fromspecial basic stick electrodes as <strong>FILARC</strong>35B, rutile <strong>flux</strong>-cored wires and SAW <strong>flux</strong>es.Both types are supplied as loose ceramicblocks, as blocks mounted in rigid metal railsfor straight joints, or as blocks on self-adhesivealuminium tape or fitted on wire. Blockson tape are available as semi rigid forstraight joints, and flexible for curved jointsas in ship hulls, tanks, vessels and pipes.Centerline cracking on ceramic backingWhen welding root runs on ceramic backingstrips, centerline cracking may occur athigh heat inputs. This is a characteristicaspect of all rutile cored wires.The concave bead shape promotes anunfavourable solidification, making the weldprone to hot cracking, especially whenshrinkage forces are high. For crack freewelding, following guidelines should beobserved:• Apply a joint angle of 45-60°C andapprox. 5mm root opening.• Use ceramic strips with a rectangulargroove to accomodate the slag. Thegroove width must be around 15mm.• Use welding currents below 180A(Ø1.2mm). This gives a more or less ovalweld pool, instead of the unfavourablearrow shape.• Minimize weaving to avoid excessivebead thickness, while keeping the arc infront of the weld pool to obtain sufficientpenetration.130
