Look at a wall. Imagine welding on that wall from left to right or right to left. That is horizontal welding.

What are 4 welding positions for plate welding?
flat, horizontal, vertical and over head position
What is pb and PC in welding position?
I know that PC stands for Horizontal-Vertical; although I am Unsure about pb.
What does 7024 welding rod mean?
70-represents 70,000 pound tinsel strength..the 2 represents 2 position (flat and horizontal) and the 4 is the flux/current used
What does en indicate on a welding rod?
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.
What is the correct terminology used for appropriate welding positions?
Unless it has been changed it is: 1G flat 2G horizontal 3G vertical 4G overhead 5G pipe
What are 4 welding positions for plate welding?
flat, horizontal, vertical and over head position
What is positional welding?
A welding position is the orientation of the weld joint, whether that be flat, horizontal, vertical, or overhead.
What does the 2 stand for in 6027 electrode?
The 2 stands for welding position. In this case it is flat and horizontal. Have fun welding!
What does 5G mean in welding?
5G is a welding position for pipe. The pipe is in a fixed, horizontal position. There is a groove along the circumference of the pipe where the weld is to be made.
What is pb and PC in welding position?
I know that PC stands for Horizontal-Vertical; although I am Unsure about pb.
Should braze welding be done in flat position?
Flat position welding is when your job is in a horizontal position the easiest and best position to do welding, then you get vertical up position where the trick is to weave your arc in a V formation, vertical down is used on thin material if its possible at an angle of 45 degrees last overhead that is the most difficult the opposite of flat welding where the job is upside down anytime you look directly down on your weld joint, it is a flat weld, flat position weld are not affected by gravity, as opposed to horizontal, vertical, and overhead, all of which the puddle tends to "sag" as you weld
Why is it essential to use a lower current and a shorter arc length when welding in a horizontal position?
Flat, Horiz. and Overhead welding normally take the same amount of Amperage. The electrode angle would change.
What is the meaning of all welding positions?
Welding is often done on structures in the position in which they are found. Techniques have been developed to allow welding in any position. Some welding processes have all-position capabilities, while others may be used in only one or two positions. All welding can be classified according to the position of the workpiece or the position of the welded joint on the plates or sections being welded. For Fillet welds, following are the welding positions defined: 1. Flat (1F) 2. Horizontal (2F) 3. Vertical (3F) 4. Overhead (4F) For Groove welds, following are the welding positions defined: 1. Flat (1G) 2. Horizontal (2G) 3. Vertical (3G) 4. Overhead (4G) 5. Flat 1G 6. Horizontal 2G 7. 5G position 8. 6 G position ANS BY: Vijay Hemgude. Pune (India)
In the 5G position for welding pipe the pipe must?
The pipe must be fixed (not rolled) in the horizontal position. With the pipe horizontal, the weld is vertical. The pipe being fixed requires the welder to weld flat (top), vertical (sides), and overhead (bottom). The pipe must be fixed (not rolled) in the horizontal position. With the pipe horizontal, the weld is vertical. The pipe being fixed requires the welder to weld flat (top), vertical (sides), and overhead (bottom).
What is a welding positioner?
A welding positioner is a work motion device that places the weldment in a location and at an angle that allows for optimum welding parameters to be used (faster travel speed, increased current, ect.) Essentially, it places the weldment so that it is in a 1G, 1F, or 2F position. Four common types of welding positioners include tilt-tables, turning rolls, head and tailstock, and universal balance positioners.
What does 7024 welding rod mean?
70-represents 70,000 pound tinsel strength..the 2 represents 2 position (flat and horizontal) and the 4 is the flux/current used
What is your core competency for this position?
Depends on applicants expertise. If you are a welder, tell them what welding processes you knew, then what welding joint design you can weld and the welding position you can perform.
