Description:
Elgacore DWX 50 is a rutile flux cored wire for use with an Ar/CO2 or straight CO2 gas shield.
Elgacore DWX 50 is mainly developed for welding on thinner materials where low current and small
fillets are required. The wire is all-positional and runs with a very stable, soft arc producing excellent
weld bead shape and finish with negligible spatter. The slag is easily detachable and fume emission
is very low. It is suitable for welding mild and medium strength carbon manganese structural steels
and produces excellent root beads on ceramic backing. Ease of use and high productivity, in
combination with good mechanical properties and a weld metal hydrogen content less than 5
ml/100g, makes Elgacore DWX 50 an extremely versatile cored wire for material thicknesses down to
5mm.
