A couple of things come immediately to mind. #1 would be too high an Amperage setting. #2 would be holding too long an arc length. Remember your four basics. Correct amperage, Correct arc length, Correct travel speed, Correct electrode angle. Alternating Current AC can also produce this effect.

Why is argon used in whelding?
Argon is used in welding as a shielding gas to protect the weld area from atmospheric gases such as oxygen and nitrogen. It helps prevent oxidation and enhances the quality of the weld by creating a stable arc and reducing spatter. Additionally, argon is chemically inert, which makes it suitable for a wide range of welding applications.
What is the gas for welding?
Oxygen and acetylene for flame welding. Argon for Tig welding CO2 for MIG welding steels Argon for MIG welding aluminum TRI-mix for robotic mig of steels. And helium is added for some overhead welding.
What welding rod is used for welding manganese and carbon steel?
720
Which safety equipment is needed when working with materials that can spatter?
You need protection goggles, gloves and a laboratory coat.
What is the use of oxidizing flame?
An oxidizing flame is used in Braze welding. Not to be confused with Brazing, Braze welding uses bronze filler rod in a similar manner to fusion welding.
What are welding sparks called?
The 'welding sparks' that come off during welding are metal particles from the filler metal, electrode, or base metal that are lost during welding. The standard term is spatter.
How do you stop spatter in mag welding?
Change to a different process. MIG welding ALWAYS, always, always creates spatter. How you stop excessive spatter is by adjusting the voltage and wire speed. Lower voltage and faster wire speed = more spatter. Higher voltage and lower wire speed = less spatter. How you find the magic combination for the weld you are making is to test in an inconspicuous place - run a bead, check for spatter, adjust the two settings, run another bead...eventually you will get to the point where you're getting a nice weld with an acceptable amount of spatter, and then you weld your project with it.
What are welding defects?
1. crack 2. spatter 3.distortion 4. haz 5 blow holes
What causes saturation in a welding transformer?
what causes saturation in welding machine
True or false is chrome plating causes spatter to stick to the tip prolonging cleanup?
false
In MIG welding what are the polarities of the torch and the work-piece and what is the fundamental reason for this?
MIG welding works only with reversed polarity, DC+, + at the torch. The reason is mostly the stability of the arc. Using DC- will result in a very unstable arc with lots of spatter.
What causes whiskers in welding?
you dont shave
How can you keep the arc from spattering as you weld?
for mig welding spatter can be reduced by amp, voltage and wire speed adjustment. check shielding gas. stick welding check the recommended voltage, amps and application for the rod you are using keep your arc short. tig welding, be sure you are using the proper tungsten, and shielding gas and filler rod for the metal you are welding, don't dip the tungsten. make sure the metal you are welding is clean .
Why spatters come in welding?
Spatter can be caused by #1 Amperage setting too high, #2 too long an arc length, #3 thin coated electrodes, #4 Using AC current.
What is a spatter dash coat?
spatter dash is one of the dry mix mortar.
How is Venus blood spatter different from arterial blood spatter?
velosity . colour,pressur.
What is the difference between forward spatter and back spatter?
Forward spatter is the blood that is ejected out of the exit wound, going the same direction as the bullet. Back spatter is the blood ejected out of the entry wound, traveling against the line of fire and towards the shooter.
