The ER80S-B2 welding electrode is a type of filler metal used in gas metal arc welding (GMAW) and other welding processes. It is designed for welding high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels and is known for its excellent toughness and ductility, particularly at low temperatures. The "ER" stands for "electrode" and "rod," while "80" indicates the minimum tensile strength of 80,000 psi. The "S" signifies that it is a solid electrode, and "B2" indicates specific alloying elements and properties, making it suitable for various demanding applications.
The maximum safe open circuit voltage for most arc welding processes typically ranges between 20 to 80 volts, depending on the specific welding type and equipment used. Exceeding this voltage can pose safety risks, including electric shock or damage to equipment. It's essential to follow manufacturer guidelines and safety standards to ensure safe operation. Always use appropriate personal protective equipment and practices when welding.

The mercury in the tube is a liquid at normal temperatures. It needs to be vaporized and ionized before the tube will conduct electricity and the arc can start. So, like fluorescent tubes, mercury vapor lamps require a starter, which is usually contained within the mercury vapor lamp itself. A third electrodeis mounted near one of the main electrodes and connected through a resistor to the other main electrode. In addition to the mercury, the tube is filled with argon gas at low pressure. When power is applied, there is sufficient voltage to ionize the argon and strike a small arc between the starting electrode and the adjacent main electrode. This starting arc discharge heats the mercury and eventually provides enough ionized mercury to strike an arc between the main electrodes. This process takes from 4 to 7 minutes, so mercury lamps are slow starting. Some bulbs include a thermal switch which shorts the starting electrode to the adjacent main electrode, extinguishing the starting arc once the main arc strikes.The mercury vapor lamp is a negative resistance device. This means its resistance decreases as the current through the tube increases. So if the lamp is connected directly to a constant-voltage source like the power lines, the current through it will increase until it destroys itself. Therefore it requires a ballast to limit the current through it. Mercury vapor lamp ballasts are similar to the ballasts used with fluorescent lamps. In fact, the first British fluorescent lamps were designed to operate from 80-watt mercury vapor ballasts.Variation: Metal halideA very closely related lamp design called the metal halide lamp uses various compounds in an amalgam with the mercury. Sodium iodide and scandium iodide are commonly in use. These lamps can produce much better quality light without resorting to phosphors. If they use a starting electrode, there is always a thermal shorting switch to eliminate any electrical potential between the main electrode and the starting electrode once the lamp is lit. (This electrical potential in the presence of the halides can cause the failure of the glass/metal seal). More modern metal halide systems do not use a separate starting electrode; instead, the lamp is started using high voltage pulses as with high-pressure sodium vapor lamps. "MetalArc" is Osram Sylvania's trademark for their metal halide lamps; "Arcstream" and "MultiVapor" are General Electric's trademark. Besides their use in traditional outdoor lighting, these lamps now appear in most computer and video projectors. However, Philips' UHP lamp, introduced in 1995, contains only mercury. As an example of application and efficiency of mercury lamps, the 61" Samsung DLP rear projection TV (HL-S6187W) uses a 150-watt Osram P-VIP lamp. Self-ballasted (SB) lampsThere are mercury vapor lamps with a filament inside connected in series with the arc tube that functions as an electrical ballast. This is the only kind of mercury vapor lamp that should be connected directly to the mains without an external ballast. These lamps have only the same or slightly higher efficiency than incandescent lamps of similar size, but have a longer life. They give light immediately on startup, but usually needs a few minutes to restrike if power has been interrupted. Because of the light emitted by the filament, they have slightly better color rendering properties than mercury vapor lamps. The color temperature is higher than incandescent lamps.

The "S" signifies that it is a solid electrode, and "B2" indicates specific alloying elements and properties, making it suitable for various demanding applications.
The correct name of the electrode is E8018. E stands for electrode, the 80 stands for 80000 psi minimum as welded tensile strength, the 1 stands for all position, and the 8 is the number associated with the ingredients of the flux, which in this case is low hydrogen and increased amounts of iron powder.
The typical no-load open circuit voltage of a DC arc welding machine generally ranges from 60 to 80 volts. This voltage is necessary to establish and maintain the arc between the electrode and the workpiece. The specific voltage can vary based on the machine design and application requirements, but it typically falls within this range for effective welding operations.
There are far more than 5 types or processes of welding. Currently the American Welding Society (AWS) states that there are more than 80 different welding and joining processes. However, some of the common welding processes include shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW), gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), flux cored arc welding (FCAW), and oxyfuel gas welding (OFW).

You can't. It's not scopeable, per the manufacture.
They were manufactured in the 80's that's why it's called a series 80. They were manufactured in the 80's that's why it's called a series 80.
I read that it can go up to 80 Volts, any more and it becomes a shock hazard to the operator.
Mid 80's or so.

the price can from 2$ to a high of 80$ depending on the ingredients and such
