Ador Automig FC 71T-1 E71T-1C Rutile Flux-Cored Wire

Description

Rutile flux-cored wire for all-position carbon steel welding

The Ador Automig FC 71T-1 is a rutile-type, gas-shielded flux-cored wire classified AWS A5.20 E71T-1C and EN ISO 17632-A T 42 2 P C1 2. Ador lists low fumes and minimal spatter, easy slag removal, a smooth weld bead, a high deposition rate and radiographic-quality welds, with all-position capability on DCEP using CO2 shielding.

Typical applications

Ador points to C-Mn steel with tensile strength up to 500 MPa, in bridges, shipbuilding, towers and cranes, chemical plant machinery and hulls, storage tanks and structural steel, construction equipment, farm machinery and rolling stock. In short, it is a general-purpose rutile wire for carbon steel fabrication where a steady arc and little cleanup matter.

Reading the classification

In E71T-1C, the 7 stands for a minimum tensile strength of 70 ksi, the 1 for all-position welding, T for a tubular wire, the 1 for the usage group, and the C for CO2 shielding. The EN designation T 42 2 P C1 2 reads as a 420 MPa class with 47 J at -20 °C, a rutile slag type, CO2 gas and positional capability. The typical impact result on the Ador sheet is 35 J at -20 °C; where the specification calls for 47 J at that temperature, confirm the batch certificate rather than relying on the typical value.

The 15 kg net weight is convenient for wire feeders in structural shops. Use CO2 at 15 to 20 litres a minute with the contact tip set back according to the torch maker. Because rutile cored wires deposit quickly, procedure heat-input limits become important on thick plate. When joint fit-up is poor the high deposition tempts overheating, so use stringer beads in the vertical-up position to keep the pool small.

About brand

Covered electrodes with names like Celwel, Tenalloy and Supabase are well known to welders who work with Indian-made consumables. Ador Welding, founded in 1951 and based in Mumbai, India, makes welding consumables and welding equipment. Seven Star LLC sources and supplies Ador welding electrodes, TIG rods and MIG wires for fabricators and contractors in Oman, quoting each item by product name, AWS classification and size.

Ador Welding consumables listed here

The listed Ador electrodes and wires are grouped by the steel they join:

  • Carbon steel, low hydrogen: Supabase X Plus (E7018 H4R) and Tenalloy Z Plus (E7018-1)
  • Cellulosic pipeline electrodes: Celwel 60 (E6010), Celwel 70P (E7010-P1) and Celwel 80P (E8010-P1)
  • Creep-resistant chrome-moly: Cromoten (E8018-B2), Cromoten C (E9018-B3) and Cromoten 9M-15 (E9015-B91) for P91
  • Weathering steel: Ultracorten I (E7018-W1)
  • Duplex and super duplex stainless: Betanox 4462 and Betanox 2594 electrodes, Tiginox 2209 and 2594 TIG rods, Miginox 2209 MIG wire

Where Ador electrodes are used

Cellulosic Celwel grades are used for root and hot passes on cross-country pipelines. Low hydrogen E7018 types serve structural steel, pressure vessels and piping. Cromoten grades are for boiler tubes, headers and steam lines in power and refinery units, and the 2209 and 2594 fillers are for duplex piping in seawater, produced water and process service, which is common in the GCC.

Ordering Ador consumables: what we need

Give the Ador product name and the AWS classification together, the diameter and length, the quantity in kilograms or packets, and the packing you require. Vacuum packing matters for low hydrogen and chrome-moly electrodes. State the welding procedure or code that governs the job and any requirement for impact testing, diffusible hydrogen level, ferrite or corrosion testing. If your client needs a batch test certificate of a defined type, say so at the inquiry stage, because it is requested from the manufacturer for the specific batch.
