Abstract
State-of-the-art in development of flux-cored wires for welding carbon and low-alloyed steels is considered. Main characteristics of flux-cored welding wires developed by the E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute over the recent years, as well as properties of metal of the welds and welded joints made with these wires are presented. Recommended application field for these wires are listed.
