What are the common Electrodes for welding spring steel?
Basic celetape found in most stores.
I have a chicago electric 180 acdc arc welder can i use the same welding rod for either ac or dc welding?
Some electrodes (welding rods) can be used AC or DC. Some are strictly DC. You may find that most electrodes run smoother on DC. Most industries purchase machines with DC capability.
Can watermelons make electricity?
i don't think so Yes, most fruit can, with careful choice of electrodes.
What is the difference between arc welder and inverter arc welder?
Both use electrical current to melt the base metal and the filler metal. Both could be considered ARC welding. Most welding is done with an electrode (stick) and as the electrode becomes consumed the weldor has to stop and replace it with a new one. MIG welding uses a spool of wire and can be run for hours on end. MIG is usually easier to learn.
What was the most common method used to run the utilities?
the most common method is to use the computer management tool and use the Fat32 or the NTFS file System you can also use Device Runner.

What type of welding which do not require a molten electrode?
TIG welding electrodes do not melt under most applications. Electrode means it carries electrical current. In MIG welding the wire becomes the electrode. In TIG and Gas Welding the filler material is called a rod. Stick welding uses rods called electrodes.

Why electrodes get red hot during welding?
They shouldn't. When using the correct electrode and amperage they will get hot but not red hot. Uncoated electrodes do get red hot but are not used in most applications. Too much amperage is usually the problem.
What is welding flux?
The term flux means to clean. Not all welding processes use a flux. Stick welding electrodes contain fluxing agents. MIG hard wire doesn't but flux-cored MIG wire does. TIG does not as the rods are bare. Most brazing applications require flux. Gas welding usually doesn't except for certain metals.
What is the most common type of welding?
miller lincoln electric and hobart
Type of pulsing program used in tig welding aluminum?
High frequency stabilized alternating current power supply is the most used GTAW process for aluminum with pure tungsten electrodes.
Why are arc welding processes considered the most important of the welding practices?
It is most commonly used, due to the fact the materials that can be welded this way are very common, and the equipment is is relatively inexpensive.
What are the most common bra sizes in the UK?
The most common bra sizes in the UK changes from year to year so its hard to pinpoint what they are ecactly. As of 2010 the most common size was 36D. As of now one of the most common is a 34B however it varies continuously.
What is MIG welding?
It is arc welding process using a spool of wire that is fed to the material by an electric motor. Different from shielded metal arc welding which uses consumable welding electrodes with a covering of flux to assist and protect the weld. The MIG uses an inert gas (IG) to keep impurities from the welding point. The technical term for MIG is GMAW (gas metal arc welding), this is because most of the time an inert gas is not used, a mixed gas is more likely. Ex. 90-10 Ar-CO2
What is called welding?
It is called aluminum welding. Aluminum can be TIG welded, the most common method, or oxy-fuel welded, or stick welded, or MIG welded.
What type of tungsten is used for welding aluminium?
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.
