Abstract
Peculiarities of process of gas-shielded arc welding using flux-cored wire are considered. Given are the data on metallurgical characteristics and classification of the gas-shielded flux-cored wires with different core types as well as examples of their successful application in industry. 6 Ref., 1 Table, 2 Figures.
 
 
Keywords: arc welding, low-carbon and low-alloy steels, flux-cored wire, shielding gas, stability of melting and transfer of metal, type of flux core, content of gases in weld metal, technical-economic aspects of application
