Abstract
Peculiarities of proceeding reactions between some components of the flux-cored wire during plasma-MIG surfacing process were considered. It is shown that the presence of halogenide compounds in arc column favours stabilization of the process of the consumable electrode arc self-adjustment. The formation of boron trifluoride in the flux-cored wire core at the stickout during heating improves the weld bead formation.
