Welding electrodes, also called welding rods, are used to create electric arcs, generating heat to melt and fuse metals. These electrodes are essential for creating solid and finished welds, and are categorized as consumable (like those used in stick welding) or non-consumable (like those used in TIG welding).
Here's a more detailed explanation:
What they are:
Welding electrodes are wire lengths, often coated, made of similar materials to the metal being welded.
How they work:
When an electrical current passes through the electrode and the workpiece, it creates an electric arc. This arc produces intense heat, melting the base metal and the electrode (in the case of consumable electrodes).
Types:
There are two main types of welding electrodes:
Consumable: These electrodes melt into the weld during the welding process,
