Flux Cored Wires

ArcStar 81N1M
AWS A5.29 E81T1-Ni1M

Characteristics and Applications:


ArcStar 81N1M is a gas-shielded flux cored wire for all-position welding. It is designed for welding 590
N/mm2 high tensile steel for low temperatures.
It provides good weldability with smooth bead appearance, less spatter and stable arc as well as good
impact properties down to -40 .
It is also suitable for welding on construction machinery, shipbuilding, offshore, structures, bridges,
storage tanks and piping.

Notes on Usage:
1. When the heat input is excessive, the impact value tends to be reduced. Therefore, perform welding with
selecting proper heat input depending on the required impact value.
2. Preheating at 50~150 is required depending on steels, plate thickness and restraint.
3. Use DC(+) polarity.
4. Use 75~80%Ar+25~20%CO2 as shielding gas.

ArcStar 101K3
AWS A5.29 E101T1-K3C-J

Characteristics and Applications:


ArcStar-101K3 offers excellent arc stability and low spatter with CO2 shielding gas. It also has a fast
freezing slag for all-position welding. These features, along with relatively low diffusible hydrogen levels,
excellent slag removal, good impact values and high strength levels, make ArcStar-101K3 a superior choice
for welding higher-strength steels.

Notes on usage:
(1) Use (DC+) polarity.
(2) Use 100%CO2, 20~25 l/min shielding gas.
(3) Welding heat input must be controlled in order to get required impact value, since notch tough
ness tends to decrease due to excessive heat input.
(4) Keep dry during handling and storage.

1. Before welding, the base material should be cleaned from oil, rusty, moisture and the welding place should
have the proper protection from the wind.
2. Use 99.8% or higher purity CO2 as shielding gas. Maintain the flow rate no under than 20L/min when wire
diameter is 1.2 or 1.6mm.
3. Trailer Shield is required to ensure the weld pool completely shielded until solidification is complete and no
porosity problem.

TWH-65W-G
Characteristics and Applications:
TWH-65W-G is a metal-cored wire for CO2 welding with the properties of stable arc and little slag. With
deposit efficiency of 93%, the weld metal contains carbide forming elements such as Cr, Nb, Mo, W, V which
offers excellent resistance to severe abrasion wear.
It is designed for hardfacing of hopper liner for steel mill, roll crusher for crushing raw cement material, roll
mill for crushing coal and table liner.

Notes on usage:
1. For hardfacing the high-carbon steel or the low-alloy steel, the welding consumables of the austenitic
stainless steel could be welded as buffer layer.
2. Dont weld too many layers is recommended to avoid crack. In need of welding many layers, the bead of
rib or waffle pattern should be applied.

TWH-67-O
Characteristics and Applications:
TWH-67-O is a self-shielded flux-cored wire developing a ledeburitic structure with a great amount of
embedded Chromium Carbides and super-hard Metalborides. The alloy is specifically designed for extreme
abrasive wear at high temperatures. The deposits cant be flame out, heat-treated, machined or forged except
grinding.
It is used for blast furnace bell, sugar cane industry, bucket teeth and coke oven screen etc.

Notes on usage:
1. For hardfacing the high-carbon steel or the low-alloy steel, the welding consumables of the austenite
stainless steel could be welded as buffer layer.

TWS-420Mo-G
Characteristics and Applications:
TWS-420Mo-G is a flux-cored wire for CO2 welding, which weld metal contains 13%Cr-1%Mo. It is
suitable for application of resistance to soil abrasion and corrosion wear such as hardfacing of shovel, press
model, the parts of bulldozer, valve seat, agitator propeller, turbine fan, conveyer screw.

Notes on usage:
1.The pre-heat and inter-pass temperature should be kept over 200

TWS-420-S
/TF-81
Characteristics and Applications:
TWS-420-S is a submerged arc flux-cored wire that matches with TF-81 neutral flux to produce the weld
metal of AISI 420 martensitic stainless steel. It offers excellent resistance to fire cracking, corrosion and
unlimited deposition thickness.
It is used for workpieces such as continuous casting rolls and steel mill rolls for high temperature service.

Notes on usage:
1. When the carbon content of the carbon steel workpiece is over 0.8 wt% or that of low alloy steel workpiece
is over 0.35wt%, a buffer layer using mild steel filler metal (root-pass welding by TWH-31-S or TWH-34-O
with around 300~400 pre-heat treatment) is helpful for further hardfacing.
2. The pre-heat and inter-pass temperatures between 200-420 should be kept for massive
workpieces, heavy cylinders and highly stressed workpieces to prevent weld cracking.
