The invention relates to a flux-cored wire for
welding low-temperature steel. The flux-cored wire comprises a cylindrical
skin, wherein a through hole penetrating through the
skin along the axis line is formed in the
skin, and the through hole is filled with flux core
powder composed of mineral
powder,
metal simple-substance
powder (except
rare earth elements), alloyed powder,
metal oxide powder and
rare earth. According to a preparation method of the flux-cored wire, the flux core powder is prepared first and then added into a U-shaped groove which is formed by drawing a
steel belt; next, after an opening of the U-shaped groove is closed, the through hole penetrating through the
steel belt is formed in the axial direction of the
steel belt, and the flux core powder is arranged in the through hole; lastly, the flux-cored wire is obtained by means of step-by-step drawing and
diameter reduction. The flux-cored wire can be welded in all directions, the
welding efficiency is high, and weld joints are stable in
metal performance and more attractive in appearance; besides, the average
impact work of deposited metal at the low temperature of minus 60 DEG C can reach 65 J, so that the properties such as low-temperature
impact toughness and low-temperature anti-
cracking performance are improved to a higher grade.
