The four components of Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) are the power source, electrode, workpiece, and welding arc. The power source generates the electrical current needed for welding, while the electrode, which is coated, provides filler material and shielding from atmospheric contamination. The workpiece is the metal being welded, and the welding arc is the ionized gas that forms between the electrode and the workpiece, generating the heat necessary for melting and joining the metals. Together, these components enable the SMAW process to create strong welds.
