Abstract

For welding stainless steels using the MAG process, a gas mixture is commonly used, consisting of 98% argon and 2% oxygen, carbon dioxide, or nitrogen. This paper presents the welding of stainless steel using flux-cored wire with 100% carbon dioxide shielding. The results of testing such welded joints are presented, as well as the visual appearance of the welded joints.
