Abstract;In recent years, the use of CO2 flux-cored wire, which has better welding performance than solid wire, has become increasingly important and necessary at shipbuilding and bridge construction sites in Asia, especially in Japan. This paper outlines the characteristics of newly developed, high quality flux-cored"DW- 100N"and"DW-50BF"wire for shipbuilding and bridge construction. DW-100N was developed for excellent hot crack resistance in small gap groove welding. DW-50BF was developed for big leg lengths (up to 11mm) in a single pass in horizontal fillet positions.
