Hi!

There are different types of welding machines that can be used for Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), also known as stick welding. The type of welding machine required for SMAW depends on the welding current (DC or AC) and the specific application.

Here are some common types of SMAW weldi ...

Hi!

Although the following SMAW (Shielded Metal Arc Welding) electrodes are not that common or not commonly used in sheet metal fabrication, this series of post would not be complete without mentioning them.

So, besides cellulosic, rutile, and basic electrodes, there are several other types of ...

Hi!

Next in this series on SMAW (Shielded Metal Arc Welding), it is the turn for basic electrodes.

Basic electrodes or low-hydrogen or basic-coated electrodes are commonly used in welding. Their flux coating contains a high proportion of basic compounds, such as calcium carbonate, calcium fluo ...

Hi!

Continuing with this series on SMAW (Shielded Metal Arc Welding), it is the turn for rutile electrodes.

Rutile-coated electrodes are commonly used in welding. Rutilic electrodes have a flux coating that contains rutile, a mineral composed of titanium dioxide.

Rutilic electrodes are know ...

Hi!

Continuing with the article series on SMAW (Shielded Metal Arc Welding), I will provide insights on cellulosic electrodes.

Cellulosic electrodes have a high cellulose content in its flux coating (which is derived from wood or plant fibers). The cellulose content in the flux helps to create ...
