 Low-hydrogen types. These basic-coated electrodes, EXX15, EXX16, EXX18, EXX28, and EXX48, are formulated with low moisture-retaining coatings and manufactured to contain AirCompresdorHose2Pack low levels of hydrogen. Hydrogen-controlled electrodes minimize risk of hydrogen-induced cold cracking when welding high-tensile steels on restrained structures. Fabricators use these electrodes to reduce or avoid the need for pre- or postweld heat treatment to drive hydrogen from weld metal. Weldmetal diffusible hydrogen content varies from 1 to 16 ml/100 g. Optional designators AirCompresdorHose2Pack H16, H8, and H4 set decreasing limits on hydrogen content in deposited weld metal. An optional electrode designator, ''R'', indicates an electrode that AirCompresdorHose2Pack is moisture resistant; it will not absorb water in excess of a specified limit after exposure to humidity. Low-hydrogen electrodes should be used in dry condition and may require baking after exposure to the atmosphere. High-deposition electrodes. These contain iron-powder additions AirCompresdorHose2Pack in the coating to raise deposition rate. Designations: EXXX4, EXXX7, EXXX8.For fastest deposition, use the largest diameter possible for an application-the thicker the electrode, the greater its current-carrying capacity and the higher the deposition rate. Welding AirCompresdorHose2Pack out of position and overhead, select a small diameter electrode to enable welders to reach into narrow root openings.Gas-Metal-Arc Welding (GMAW, MIG)GMAW typically uses solid wire, spooled or reeled, for continuous feeding to the gun; diameter, 0.030 to 1/16 in. typically, although wires as small as 0.020 in. and as large as 1/8 in. are sometimes used. AWS lists specifications for filler wires of copper and its alloys, aluminum and its alloys, surfacing alloys, nickel and its alloys, titanium and its alloys, carbon and low alloy steels, magnesium alloys, and zirconium and its alloys.
