What is flux core welding used for?
The flux core welding process is excellent for welding dirty, rusted, or contaminated metals. This welding process is ideal for all welding positions and outdoor welding activities because of the flux shield. The flux-cored arc welding process is quite easy to learn and master.

What can FCAW weld?
This type of FCAW was developed primarily for welding structural steels. In fact, since it uses both a flux-cored electrode and an external shielding gas, one might say that it is a combination of gas metal (GMAW) and FCAW.

What is the main advantage of FCAW?

The Advantages of FCAW

Yields high quality, consistent welds with fewer defects. A high deposition rate, which is the speed that the filler metal is applied. Can be used in all positions with the right filler metal. Suitable for outdoor welding or shop welding.

Is flux core better than MIG?

Thin stock is best done with solid MIG wire. But when working outdoors in windy conditions you are better of with flux-cored wire. Welding cast iron or galvanized steel, again go with the flux-cored wire. But if you need to weld aluminum, then you need to use the MIG welder with solid wire (and possibly a spool gun).

What is a disadvantage of flux core welding?
FCAW Disadvantages

Higher electrode wire cost compared to solid electrode wires. More costly equipment than many other welding processes. Less portable equipment than SMAW or GTAW. The slag covering the weld must be removed.
