The choice of electrode is very important

Technology?? Surgery, the electrode usually known as the filler metal. The E6013 welding rod is used to fill a fixed combination of metal in the welding process. Welding process by melting the workpieces and adding a filler material, this is often the electrode, forming a pool of molten material cooling to become a strong joint.
Also known as electrode Welding Rod. They usually have four types, including for the coverage of metal arc Welding Rods. Electrode coating containing compounds, such as rutile, calcium fluoride, cellulose, iron powder. The rutile coated rods provide a good appearance and weld quality welding. Stainless steel rods or electrodes are widely used in welded steel and carbon steel workpiece in the workpiece.
On the other hand, bare electrodes for gas metal arc. These electrodes contain a variety of deoxy metals such as silicon, manganese, titanium and aluminum, which helps to prevent oxygen porosity. In addition, they also contain nitrogen and metal, such as titanium, zirconium to avoid nitrogen porosity. Usually from 0.7 mm to 2.4 mm in diameter in these rods. However, the diameter significantly by the metal and the application program type. These electrodes can also be used in gas tungsten arc welding.
Tubular electrode, wired for flux cored arc welding. These rods contain mild and low alloy structural steel, stainless steel, high nickel alloys. Some people even in the face of wear surfacing alloy.
Flux using the submerged arc welding process, which process requires a continuous supply of solid and tubular electrode.
In addition, the electrode or electrodes can also be classified as "fast fill" electrodes. Design and characteristics of rapidly melting, and "quick freeze" electrode designed to consolidate rapidly. Is classified as a fill freeze "or" fast follow-up between the electrodes of the electrode.
Appropriate electrodes in the welding process is critical, because it is the main factor that determines the joint nature.
