Arc Welding Electrodes

When it comes to arc welding there are a variety of different electrodes at your disposal. You can choose an electrode not just for the type and size of material you need welded but also depending on what position will be used in order to achieve optimal results. This is primarily due to how materials affect everything from the depth of arc and deposition rate all the way down through fluidity and setting time for slag as well as alloy types that are needed or joint types desired.
