SWG (Standard Wire Gauge) electrodes are used in welding as filler materials to join metal pieces together. They come in various diameters and are selected based on the thickness of the materials being welded and the type of welding process employed. SWG electrodes are often coated to enhance arc stability and improve weld quality. Their precise size and composition ensure optimal performance in various welding applications.

What is the meaning consumable welding?

Consumable electrode welding contain the processes where the electrode acts as the filler material and the electrode that generates the arc. Because the electrode is also the filler material, the electrode 'burns' or is consumed, hence consumable electrode.
