It probably can be used. SS is Steel with Chromium and Nickel added BUT it will not be corrosive resistant & will not match the SS in color or strength. It would be like gluing a piece of Pine wood to a piece of Mahogany.
The angle of the electrode, the speed of the electrode used to weld and the size of the electrode.
Any electrode holder that will accommodate the size of rod can be used. Twin Carbon Arc Welding requires a specific holder. Air Carbon Arc Gouging requires a special holder that also supplies a stream of air.
friction welding can be used to join dissimilar metal. Also depending on the metals most arc welding processes and oxy-fuel can used. It's just a matter of using the correct filler material or electrode.
Everybody used to call it "stick welding". MMAW Manual Metal Arc Welding is the correct nomenclature. The "sticks" are electrodes held in an electrode holder connected to a power supply. Establish an arc between the end of the electrode and the metal and move across the joint. As you weld the electrode is consumed. Discard the "stub", insert a new electrode and continue.
Depend upon dia of electrode & Arc length between Electrode tip and job surface.
A rule of thumb is - the arc length should be the same as the diameter of the electrode. 3/32" electrode = 3/32" arc length. 1/8" electrode = 1/8" arc length etc. The thicker the electrode coating the shorter the distance from the end of the electrode to the work. Drag rods are contact rods. E-7024 is one.
arc energy is the amps that are comming off from the electrode
arc energy is the amps that are comming off from the electrode
Arc length is the distance from the tip of the electrode to the workpiece.
Manual Metal Arc Welding(MMAW) Also GTAW (TIG) and GMAW (MIG) The MIG wire carries electric current so it is considered the electrode. TIG the Tungsten is considered an electrode.
Consumable electrode welding contain the processes where the electrode acts as the filler material and the electrode that generates the arc. Because the electrode is also the filler material, the electrode 'burns' or is consumed, hence consumable electrode.
The E6013 welding electrode is a versatile, all-purpose electrode with a coating that provides smooth arc characteristics and good penetration. It is commonly used for general welding applications on mild steel and is known for producing clean and minimal spatter welds. The E6013 electrode can be used with both AC and DC welding machines.
