Amperage Ranges for Different Flux Core Wire Diameters

Amperage Ranges for Different Flux Core Wire Diameters

The recommended amperage ranges for different flux core wire diameters is important for getting the best welding results. An essential aspect of this is using the correct amperage ranges for the materials employed and to be welded. With Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW), the selection and calibration of these amperage ranges according to the flux…

Weld Galvanized Steel with Flux-Cored Wire

Welding galvanized steel with flux core wire can be challenging especially if you are not familiar with the flux core method. Galvanized steel is coated with a layer of zinc that protects it from corrosion, but also creates problems when welding. The zinc can vaporize and form toxic fumes, which can cause health issues and…

Technique de Soudage: Soudure TIG ou MIG

Technique de Soudage: Soudure TIG ou MIG

Le soudage est une technique essentielle dans la transformation de métal, permettant l’assemblage de pièces qui seraient autrement impossibles à créer. Le soudage consiste à chauffer les métaux afin de les fusionner et donc de créer une jointure permanente entre eux. Ce processus implique plusieurs éléments tels que la source de chaleur (arc électrique, flamme,…

Weld Spatter: How to Eliminate or Minimize the Problem

Preventing and mitigating weld spatter (splatter) is essential for ensuring a successful welding process. Not only can weld spatter impact the appearance of the finished product, but it can also create safety hazards and result in added cleanup time. Weld spatter can damage surrounding equipment, contaminate surfaces, and even pose a risk of injury to…

Stick Welding: Welding without Gas using SMAW

Stick Welding: Welding without Gas using SMAW

Stick welding or Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) to give its proper name is a welding method that doesn’t require a shielding gas. Welding without gas using SMAW is a technique that involves using a flux-coated electrode to shield the weld pool from atmospheric gases, instead of using an external shielding gas.  This technique is commonly…

What Are the Differences Between MIG Welding versus Flux- Cored Arc Welding

Flux-Core and MIG welding are two of the most commonly used welding techniques. Flux-Core welding uses a continuously-fed consumable electrode, which is shielded by a flux compound to protect the weld area from atmospheric contamination. MIG welding, on the other hand, uses a continuously-fed consumable wire electrode and a shielding gas to protect the weld…
