Selecting the correct electrode for a welding job can be quite challenging. Electrodes are available in a wide range of types, Each of which provides different mechanical properties, and operates with a specific welding type.
Selection of the correct types of welding electrodes, for specific applications is a very important consideration in welding.
Factors we should consider when selecting an electrode include; base metal type, joint preparation, welding position, power supply, etc.
Three base metal parameters need to be taken into consideration while selecting an electrode. They are;
- Base metal mechanical properties
- Base metal chemical properties
- Base metal thickness.
All these are explained in the video.
The American Welding Society (AWS) basic welding position and the numbering system for the electrode are also explained in the video.
Do sure to watch till the end to get a detailed overview and understanding of electrode selection.
