What is the ideal length of arc in welding?

The ideal length of arc in welding typically ranges from 1/16 to 1/8 inch, depending on the welding process and material being used. A shorter arc length tends to produce a more concentrated heat, leading to deeper penetration, while a longer arc can create a wider bead but may result in a lack of penetration. Maintaining the proper arc length is crucial for achieving optimal weld quality and preventing defects. Adjustments may be necessary based on factors like electrode type and position.
