What BÖHLER alform® 900 L-MC metal-cored wire is used for

BÖHLER alform® 900 L-MC is a seamless, high strength metal-cored wire designed for the alform® 900 x-treme base material. It is used on working machines, booms, cranes and structures where a high yield strength matters.

Base materials are S890Q, S890QL and ASTM A 709. The seamless sheath protects the core against moisture even after long storage, the wire goes into machine building, crane structures and commercial vehicles, and it leaves only silicate islands to clean between passes.

  • Classification EN ISO: 18276-A T 89 5 ZMn2NiCrMo M M21 1 H5
  • AWS classification: A5.28 / SFA-5.28 E120C-GH4
  • Shielding gas: M21
  • Diameters: 1.2 mm
  • Approvals: TÜV, DB, CE

Keep the hydrogen level low: dry consumables, a clean groove and preheating on heavier sections. Set the parameters for spray arc, in the short arc range a metal-cored wire loses its deposition advantage. Keep the gas cover complete, without a full slag layer the pool is more sensitive to draughts.
