What is the saw welding?

saw stands for suberged arc welding, where the weld is submerged underneath the flux


Why is submerged arc welding referred as submerged?

Submerged arc welding is called "submerged" because the high voltage electrical current (called the "arc") that heats the metal and wire to weld together is submerged underneath layers of granular earth materials called "flux". About 50% to 90% of this flux can be re-used and fed back into the system with the proper equipment.

What is submerged arc welding?

Sub arc welding is a process in which the welding actually occurs while submerged under a layer of flux. Not only does this prevent oxygen from entering the weld and thus porosity, but it also keeps the dangerous arc from sputtering and spattering from the weld.


What is DSAW means in pipes?

Double Sub-merged Arc Welding usually associated with spiral welded pipe. The welding arc is submerged in flux to protect from air impurities, this process is done on both the id and od seperately hence double submerged.


What is the outer coating on a welding rod?

The flux is the outer coating on a welding rod. The flux is a very important part of the welding rod.


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 welder slag?

Welder slag is a byproduct resulting from the welding process, often forming a layer on top of the welded joint. It consists of the residue from the flux used in the welding rod or wire, which helps protect the weld pool from impurities and contaminants while it cools. Slag is typically removed after welding to inspect the quality of the weld and ensure proper fusion.


Is inconel weldable?

INCONEL alloy 600 is readily joined by conventional welding processes. Welding materials for joining alloy 600 are INCONEL Welding Electrode 182 for shielded metal-arc welding*, INCONEL Filler Metal 82 for gas tungsten-arc and gas metal-arc welding, and INCONEL Filler Metal 82 and INCOFLUX 4 Submerged Arc Flux for the submerged-arc process. Welds made with INCONEL Welding Electrode 182 may have decreased ductility after extended exposure to temperatures of 1000° to 1400°F (540° to 760°).


MIG welding compared to flux core welding?

Flux core is a type of MIG welding.... please kind of know what your talking about before you ask a question.... Gas assisted solid mig wire welding is neater and cleaner. There are two types of flux core mig welding that you are talking about. 1. Gasless flux core mig wire 2. Shielded flux cored welding wire, uses a shielding gas as well. Most likely you are talking about the gasless mig wire. look here for more info: www.learn-how-to-weld.com/gasless-mig-wire.html


How submerged aec welding arc welding is different from inert gas shilded arc welding?

Submerged arc welding uses a wire electrode (like MIG welding) and a granular flux to protect the puddle and add alloys to the weld. This flux is deposited into the weld area by a hopper/tube arrangement which relies on gravity. The operator cannot see the weld taking place and relies on gauges to ensure the process is proceeding correctly. This process can only be done in the flat position. On the positive side a large amount of weld is deposited compared to any other process. This process can be manual, semi or fully automated. In MIG welding (Inert Gas Shielded Arc Welding) the protective shield is an inert gas which allows the operator to see the weld as it takes place. It can also be manual, semi or fully automated.
