Cigweld Metal-Cor 5XP MIG Wire

METAL-COR 5XP is an impressive Grade 4 impact, full iron powder cored wire recommended for a wide range of high speed fillet and butt welding applications in all downhand positions.

Combining the high deposition rates of a flux cored wire and the high efficiency of a solid wire, METAL-COR 5XP is ideal for the high productivity fillet and butt welding of mild and medium strength carbon steels requiring high impact strength.

METAL-COR 5XP produces low fume levels. The smooth “spray arc transfer” gives low spatter levels and good weld metal edge wetting for exceptional operator appeal.

Featuring

• High deposition efficiency & deposition rates
• Vacuumed packed in foil for protection against moisture
• Product label including Batch Number, P/N and Description,
Size & Weight on the foil
• Spool wrapped in VPI paper and a Silica Gel satchel to prevent
any moisture build up or rusting
• Precision layered wound
• Low level of remaining manufacturing lubricant
• Product labels on both sides of the spool
• Metal-Cor 5XP is Grade-4 with a H4 classification.
• It is designed to run on Mixed Argon+CO2 shielding gases,
ranging from 10-25% CO2.
• For use with lower CO2 concentrations ~10% use a closer
stick out to achieve spray arc (same as MIG Welding).
• Weld layer transitions in multilayer fillet welds are very smooth
and even.
• Spatter levels on Metal-Cor 5XP are very low to extremely low
