friction welding can be used to join dissimilar metal. Also depending on the metals most arc welding processes and oxy-fuel can used. It's just a matter of using the correct filler material or electrode.
TIG welding electrodes do not melt under most applications. Electrode means it carries electrical current. In MIG welding the wire becomes the electrode. In TIG and Gas Welding the filler material is called a rod. Stick welding uses rods called electrodes.
The variable parameters for gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) include; current, arc length, electrode type, electrode size, electrode grind angle, shielding gas type, shielding gas flow rate, and travel speed.
Technically speaking, MIG welding is arc welding because it uses an intensely hot electrical arc to heat and join the metal together. Usually arc welding means stick welding. The difference between the processes is the manner in which the filler metal is applied. With MIG welding, the filler metal is usually applied with a wire fed through a gun type device with an inert gas such as argon shielding the weld. Arc (or stick) welding uses a solid electrode of the same type of metal as is being joined shielded by a layer of flux. The method of welding depends on the user's skill and what is to be welded.
Both currents have their ups and downs but both are used in the maufacturing industry, in reality it depends on your base metal and electrode.
Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) typically uses electricity as its power source. The electric current passes through a consumable wire electrode, creating an arc that melts the base metal and forms the weld. The electrode is continuously fed from a spool to maintain the welding process.

Stick welding is a type of welding that uses an electrical current to produce an intensely hot plasma arc that melts metal together while adding filler metal, which is what the "stick" electrode is made of. The electrode (or stick) is usually about a foot in length and is covered in flux to prevent atmospheric contamination. It is held by an electrified clamp that the welder runs across the joint to weld.
Arc welding uses an electrical current to create enough heat to melt metal. Any type of welding that uses an electric arc is technically arc welding. However, most people use the term 'arc welding' to mean shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), or 'stick welding'. SMAW, MIG, and flux core wire welding use the filler metal as both electrode and filler; TIG welding uses an electric arc to heat the base metal and a separate filler rod to add metal to the weld.
The "2" in a 6027 electrode typically refers to the electrode classification. In this case, it indicates that the electrode is classified as a low-hydrogen, iron powder electrode. It specifies the type of welding process, position, and characteristics of the electrode.
The type of electrode that you select (unless it is stipulated on the drawing or by an authority) will be based on too many factors to list here. But here are a few. To match the material to be welded. To meet certain specs Ie. tensile strength, maleability, abrasion resistance, protect the base metal from acids-corrosion-salt water-chemicals etc.etc. To match the type of electrical current produced by the welding machine. The position you will be welding. Flat,Vert,O-head,Horiz. The amount of weld you want to lay down with each pass. The thickness of the base metal. The cost of the electrode. Cleanliness of the material. Dirt, Paint, Zinc etc.
Electrode E70XX refers to a classification of welding electrodes used for shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), specifically designed for welding low-alloy and high-strength steels. The "E" indicates it is an electrode, "70" signifies the minimum tensile strength of the weld metal in thousands of psi (70,000 psi), and "XX" denotes specific characteristics such as the type of coating and usability. The "XX" can indicate various properties, such as whether the electrode is suitable for all-position welding or if it has a low hydrogen content, which helps minimize the risk of hydrogen-induced cracking.

During welding, the base metal is the material that is being joined together by the welding process. The base metal is heated to its melting point or beyond, depending on the welding method, and then joined with other base metal pieces or filler material to create a welded joint. The type of base metal used in welding can vary widely depending on the application and the materials being joined. Common base metals include various types of steel, aluminum, copper, and other alloys. The specific choice of base metal depends on factors such as the desired properties of the welded joint, the intended use of the finished product, and the welding process being employed.
Welding Electrorodes or Welding Rods are used in arc welding. Arc welding is a special type of welding which uses a welding power supply to create an electric arc between the base material (e.g. steel) and the electrode. The Welding Ectrorodes can be used for all weldable aluminum and mild steel.
