The flux-cored arc process for wet welding and cutting - an assessment (Bulletin, May 1997)

Covers an in-depth appraisal of the use of the flux-cored arc (FCA) process in comparison to conventional manual metal arc (MMA) for wet welding and cutting. Equipment, comparisons of welding and cutting performance and cost analyses are included

Assessment of the mechanised flux cored arc welding process for underwater wet welding

Summary of a report on the equipment, operating characteristics and potential applications of the self-shielded flux cored arc welding process. A mechanised system for producing underwater wet welds using the FCAW process was commissioned and the performance of a range of power sources and alternative consumables was assessed
