flux-cored wire (FCW)Catalogue only
AWS class
E 71T-1C-J
EN ISO class
T 42 4 P C 1 H5
Tensile strength (Rm)
500–640 MPa
Classification
| AWS class | E 71T-1C-J |
|---|---|
| EN ISO class | T 42 4 P C 1 H5 |
Purpose
- Rutile flux-cored wire for production welding in all positions (AWS E 71T-1C-J, EN ISO T 42 4 P C 1 H5), with 100% CO2 shielding.
Why it works
The rutile flux gives high melting capacity at high current in all positions, with smooth, X-ray-safe beads — the combination sought in shipbuilding and vehicle production welding.
Fields of application
- Production welding of machinery, shipbuilding, industrial vehicles and steel structures, in all positions.

Equivalence refers to the classification (AWS / EN ISO), not to product identity. In applications with a qualified procedure (WPS), validate the substitution before use.

Advantages
- Smooth, X-ray-safe beads, with high melting capacity at high current in all positions.
- Economical thanks to its high melting capacity.
Limitations
- CO2 shielding only — for Ar-CO2 mixed-gas shielding in the same position range, see FERVEO STL 480 M HC FCW.
