Covered electrodes are vital to the process of shielded metal arc welding. The covered electrode is one of four types of filler metal used when creating a joint from two pieces of metal.
It is generally called a flux or cleansing agent. Sometimes contained in electrode coatings and found in powdered form to use in the Oxy-fuel welding process. Primary ingredient is Borax ( yah same as in some hand cleaners). Often mixed with water to form a paste that can be applied by a brush to both the welding/brazing rod and also the base metal.
Oxygen is used to produce hot flame which is used in welding purpose
Potentiometric titration is a method to detect potential difference between the indicator electrode and reference electrode and thus determine concentration of chemical component, which reacts with reagent added to a solution potentially in equilibrium at the beginning.The popularly used reference electrode is either silver-silver chloride or mercury sulfate electrode, and the indicator electrode is generally made of glass electrode, platinum electrode and silver electrode or ion selective electrode.
Most tungsten electrodes are usable with aluminum. However, pure (EWP) and zirconiated (EWZr) are recommended. This is because aluminum should be welded with alternating current (AC.) EWP and EWZr are the most easily balled electrodes, meaning at the end of the electrode there should be a hemispherical tip about 1.5 times the diameter of the electrode.
Electrodes with too much moisture may lead to cracking or porosity.

The letters EN , on a welding electrode , indicate "electrode negative" , that is the electrode is to be used with a DC current , in the negative position, or polarity.
If you are referring to the small unusable piece of welding rod that is left after welding, most call it a electrode stub.

A tubular or wire cored electrode is used for both MIG and MAG welding. These can be purchased online at places like AGA.com.
We were told 309 was the electrode of choice.
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.
The angle of the electrode, the speed of the electrode used to weld and the size of the electrode.
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.
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.
Welding Electrorodes or Welding Rods are used in arc welding. Arc welding is a special type of welding which uses a welding power supply to create an electric arc between the base material (e.g. steel) and the electrode. The Welding Ectrorodes can be used for all weldable aluminum and mild steel.
