How To Weld Stainless Steel Flux Cored Wire. Plus your stainless steel base metal. By dragging the electrode youre allowing the flux to rise to the top of the weld pool and give you proper coverage.
This arc is struck between the metallic workpiece and the continuously-fed tubular cored consumable filler wire with both the wire and the metallic workpiece melting together to form a weld joint. For FCAW stainless a 10 degree drag angle should generally work just fine. The base metal is the metal youre welding.
They are characterized by weld and HAZ grain growth which can result in low toughness of welds.
With LSi wires youre sure of a low carbon high silicone content for a smoother weld pool and finer results. Then the wire melts from the heat of the arc and the filler metal is deposited into the weld. Plus your stainless steel base metal. For FCAW stainless a 10 degree drag angle should generally work just fine.
