Is there types of electrodes in Shielded Metal Arc Welding?

Probably more than there are types of metal. There are many electrodes manufactured just for welding steel and for welding ON steel. Some electrodes are made to weld steel and other metals (multi-purpose). Some electrodes are designed to protect steel from chemicals and corrosive elements and are used to CLAD or OVERLAY or BUTTER. Steel, stainless steel and some other metals are manufactured with different alloys and electrodes are made to match these. Some electrodes are made to join dissimilar metals, say steel to stainless steel or Monel. It is very important to use the correct electrode for the application at hand.
