For welding 8 mm thickness metals, common methods include MIG (Metal Inert Gas) welding, TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding, and stick welding (SMAW - Shielded Metal Arc Welding). The choice depends on the type of metal and specific requirements.

Is spot welding is fusion welding?
Yes, no filler metal is used. Often used on thin metals, the metals are pressed together and electricity is used to heat the metals to a state they melt slightly and fuse together.
Why is oxyactylene welding is not used in high responsibility fusion welding?
Oxyacetylene Welding is not used in high responsibility fusion welding because fusion welding requires two metals to be fused without melting whereas Oxyacetylene Welding involves the melting of metals so this process is not suitable. By Makeveli
Name the metal used in welding shop?
A couple of metals that are used in a welding shop are carbon and stainless steel.
What are the 2 noble gases used to protect active metals during welding?
Argon and Helium are used as sheilding gases in welding.
What is a reaction between acetylene and oxygen that is used in welding metal?
Used in welding metals, the reaction of acetylene with oxygen has = -1256.2= -1256.2 .
The Basics of Welding Rods?
Welding rods are a crucial element of the welding process. In some circles, they are referred to as filler metals. For those who are unaware, a welding rod is a metal that is used during the welding process to connect to joints to one another either during repair manufacture of metal products. In most cases, the way that welding occurs is when the work pieces are partially melted and a filler metal, usually in the form of a welding rod, is used in order to form a liquid pool that joins the two parts together. When the metal solidifies, it creates a strong joint. A welding rode may also be referred to as an electrode. In most cases, they come in four different types. One of these types is the covered welding rod. The coating of the rod usually consists of calcium fluoride, iron powder, cellulose, and rutile. Rods that are coted in rutile typically give the weld a much nicer looking appearance that is very solid and high in quality. In some cases, a stainless steel rod may be used in order to weld two steel pieces together. In gas welding, bare welding rods are used instead. Several deoxidizing metals are included such as aluminum, silicon, titanium, and manganese. These are used in order to keep oxygen out of the process, which can cause the metals to rust and corrode during welding. Other materials such as titanium and zirconium may be included in order to prevent nitrogen from reacting with the metals as well. In most cases, these rods come with thicknesses somewhere between 2.4 and 0.7 millimeters. The thickness of the rod will depend on the metals that are being used, and for what purpose. A tubular welding rod, which comes in the form of a wire, is used in what is referred to as flux-cored arc welding. Another type of welding rod are the welding fluxes, which are used in submerged arc welding. This is a process that requires a constant supply of both solid and tubular welding rods. These four types of welding rods can be divided up into fast-fill electrodes and fast-freeze electrodes. Fast fill electrodes melt rapidly, while fast-freeze electrodes solidify quickly.
Which is the abundant element on the earth and how is it used for cutting and welding metals?
Hydrogen.When Hydrogen burns with oxygen (from the atmosphere or supplied directly) the heat of the flame is high and is suitable for welding and cutting metals.
What do you mean by seam welding where it is used?
seam welding is a process that produces a weld at the faying surfaces of two similar metals where its used depends on which metal you look to weld
Name the most abundant element in the universe - How can it be used forcutting and welding metals?
Hydrogen. When Hydrogen burns with oxygen (from the atmosphere or supplied directly) the heat of the flame is high and is suitable for welding and cutting metals.
What is the difference between welding engineering and welding technology?
Welding technology is the study and application of the many processes of joining various metals. Welding Engineering is a far deeper study and application into the individual characteristics of each metal. A welding engineer will decide what metals are used in a project and what process to weld those metals. Weld techs will usually just receive blue prints and weld as instructed. Welding technology is usually a 2 year degree, and Welding Engineering is a 4+year degree.
Welding method used for joining dissimilar metals?
Friction stir is becoming very popular for this
What is an example of active gas?
These inert gases are used in gas tungsten arc welding, and also in gas metal arc welding for the welding of non-ferrous metals. Semi-inert shielding gases, or activeshield gases, include carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. These active gases are used with GMAW on ferrous metals.
