Yes. There are covered electrodes made for SMAW (stick) welding of SS. I have actually repaired one of my wifes SS cooking pots that had a broken handle with a stick welder.
Shielded Metal Arc Welding, known colloquially as "stick".
shielded metal are welding is also called
Mike Gellerman has written: 'Practical shielded metal arc welding' -- subject(s): Shielded metal arc welding 'Welding fundamentals' -- subject(s): Welding
Shielded Metal Arc Welding, commonly called Stick welding. A shielded electrode passes a current between itself and the workpiece. Both the base-metal and the electrode are melted by the current and the electrode is consumed and deposited into the melted puddle forming the weldment.
Steel is such a commonly used metal that almost any welding machine can accommodate it. Some are better than others though. Steel is usually welded with either sick welding, or wire welding (gas shielded or flux core)
shielded metal arc welding use to electrode metal
s.m.a.w. shielded metal arc welding
If you are asking for the correct nomenclature it is Shielded Metal Arc Welding.
any metal
A base metal is also called the Parent metal. It is that metal in the welding practice that has been cut by the various forms of cutting, then prepared and is to be welded. Welding is performed to join one section of the base metal to another section of base metal by means of the various welding processes, e.g. SMAW(Shielded Metal Arc Welding) where welding welding rods are used, GTAW(Gas Tungsten Arc Welding) where Tig wire is used, FCAW(Flux Cored Arc Welding) etc. The welding rods, the TIG wires etc are called the filler metals, for they fill the weld gaps by depositing their molten-state weld metals.
shielded metal arc welding does not required any shielding gas
