Abstract:were added to the flux cored wire, and their effects on the oxygen content of the weld metal were investigated. The investigation showed that the oxygen content of weld metal was not influenced by the type of metallic elements in the fluoride; rather, it was influenced by the stability of the arc during welding. While the wire containing MgF 2 showed the most stable arc and the least amount of oxygen in the weld metal, the wire containing MnF 3 showed the least stable arc and the greatest amount of oxygen.
