What’s Up with Gasses: FCAW

In part two of What’s Up with Gases, host Kevin explores shielding gases for the flux core arc welding (FCAW) dual shield process. Building on part one, which focused on gas metal arc welding (GMAW), Kevin tests four gases—75/25 mix, pure Argon, pure CO2, and TriMix—to demonstrate how they impact weld quality. Watch as he compares bead profiles, spatter, and penetration while sharing valuable welding insights.
