Stick welding is a popular and versatile welding technique that is used in a wide range of applications, but the one question that has stumped many welding enthusiasts is “Is the stick welding electrode positive or negative?” This simple yet crucial aspect of stick welding can have a significant impact on the quality and strength of your welds. Whether you’re a seasoned welder or just starting out, understanding the polarity of stick welding electrodes is essential for producing top-notch welding results.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Stick welding is technically defined as “Shielded Metal Arc Welding”. The term “stick welding” is a common slang term that the welding industry has adopted becuse the electrode that welds the metal comes in the form of a “Stick”.The simplest explanation of how stick welding works. Stick welding is a form of welding that uses electricity to melt a metal filler rod/electrode/stick (electrode is the proper term) that melts both the metal joint and electrode all at once to fuse two pieces of metal together and fill the joint with filler metal at the same time.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

There’s a lot of talk about using 6010 or 6013 electrodes for stick welding because they’re ideal for beginners. They tend to work great in a variety of positions, on AC or DC, and on a variety of metal thicknesses. While these electrodes certainly are easy to use, keep in mind that 7018 electrodes are what a lot of structural welders use.You may learn to stick weld with a 6010 or 6013, but sooner than later, you’ll want to get your hands on some 7018 electrodes and practice laying beads with tight arcs. In fact, if you practice your technique with a 7018 electrode for stick welding, you’ll produce less spatter, control the puddle, and prepare yourself for a wide variety of construction, structural, pipeline, or nuclear power jobs. When you get stuck with a 7018 stick welding electrode, you’ll also get stuck with a job.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Shellfish can make you a better welder. Simply think about CLAMS: current setting, length of arc, angle of electrode, manipulation of the electrode and speed of travel. If you're just learning the stick process, technically called shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), remembering these five points will improve your welding technique.Take a minute to review the following stick welding advice, especially if you've never struck an arc or are still debating which machine to buy.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Shielded Metal Arc welding is the process of joining two metal pieces using a flux covered electrode which is melted in an electric arc and becomes a fused part of the pieces being welded. This article will describe the use of flux-coated welding rods and a simple, transformer type cracker box welding machine.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Welding electrodes are metal wires with baked on chemical coatings. The rod is used to sustain the welding arc and to provide the filler metal required for the joint to be welded. The coating protects the metal from damage, stabilizes the arc, and improves the weld. The diameter of the wire, less the coating, determines the size of the welding rod. This is expressed in fractions of an inch such as 3/32", 1/8", or 5/32." The smaller the diameter means it requires less current and it deposits a smaller amount of filler metal.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Probably, STICK welding is the process most widely used worldwide. The reason behind this might be its simplicity, portability, and good deposition rates. It is often considered the most basic and easiest form of welding.Nevertheless, not everyone likes this process. Some people consider that with so many other options nowadays, using STICK welding might be like going back in time. So, let’s dig deeper into what STICK is and what can still be used for.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Stick welding is one of the oldest types of welding and is still widely used today on various applications, such as construction and earth moving equipment, thanks to its simple technique. While it may not be as easy as MIG welding for a beginner, it’s definitely not as hard as TIG welding.Stick welding is a good middle ground and is perfect for those who don’t want the hassle of a gas tank or want to weld thicker pieces of metal.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

If you are first learning SMAW, you may want to opt for a user-friendly rutile electrode. However, anyone who plans to weld professionally or critical structures (and that includes farm implements) should learn with the electrodes used for these applications, and that means mastering basic and cellulosic electrodes.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Stick welding is one of the oldest and most certainly one of the most widely used welding methods across various industries. The advantages include low cost, high versatility, speed, and penetration, making it a favorite in multiple industrial applications.However, Stick welding can also be highly versatile for home and DIY projects and on-field repairs. That's why, in this article, we'll delve into the core principles, equipment selection, safety measures, and step-by-step techniques on how to Stick weld. Once you get the hang of it, you can achieve strong, durable welds with this versatile and enduring welding process.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

If you are going to weld in a position that is steeper than 45 degrees, you have to realize that you will be against gravity. The 7018 electrode was designed for this very purpose. Classed by the AWS (American Welding Society), this is the perfect choice because the 7018 has a lower content of iron powder. This particular electrode makes a weld puddle that is able to freeze almost instantly and won’t drip off while working. You can also use the AWS classed 6010 stick but this electrode requires a certain whipping or stacking technique in which you pull the stick out of the puddle and put it back in intermittently. You can use the 6100 for the same kind of work but 7018 is known to give better results and a quicker weaving pattern.อ่านเพิ่มเติม

It might have crossed your mind if it is ok to hold a stick welding electrode when you weld. Or you might have seen others do it. But when is it helpful, and how safe is it?You can hold the electrode when stick welding (SMAW) for a short time to improve the electrode’s stability when striking the arc or making tack welds. When doing so, you must wear dry welding gloves in good condition.อ่านเพิ่มเติม
