This process, often referred to as stick electrode welding is the most traditionally used welding method. High-quality welds on a variety of metals and thicknesses can be made rapidly with excellent uniformity. This method uses a flux-covered metal electrode to carry an electrical current forming an arc that melts the work and the electrode. The molten metal from the electrode mixes with the melting base material, forming the weld.

What will be an ideal response?


Shielded metal arc welding.
