RE: [MW:25234] Worm track/hole

Other interesting thing to check is the storage of your filler metals. Especially in case of Flux Cored Wires, if those are folded type instead of seamless bad storage conditions can caused moisture pickup in the flux which definitely will result in wormholes in your weld metal.

Few years back even I used to get the similar wormholes in my FCAW  Welds (can't disclose the brand).

 

I tried many variables.

 

Eventually the only variable that helped was change of brand !!

 

Also your travel speed of 800mm/min is very high.

Aim for @ 300 to 350 mm/min

Subject: [MW:25208] Worm track/hole

 

Process FCAW, Wire E81T1-B2/Dia 1.2mm, shielding 85%Ar+15%Co2. Flow rate 20lpm. Current 240amps, 26 volt, travel speed 800mm/ minute.    while welding, we are getting defect of wormholes/wormstracks , some time continuous and intermittent on top of the weld. Experts, what would be the reason for this defect?
