 Electrodes come 3 to 24 in. long, 0.01 air to 0.25-in. diameter. Colored markings--bands or dots--indicate composition: pure tungsten, green; 1-percent compressor thoriated, yellow; 2 percent thoriated. red; ceriated, orange; lanthanted, black.Filler metal GIAW does not usually requite addition of fillet metal, but filler is commonly added when base-metal thickness is greater than 1/8 in. Finer metal for low-carbon (to 0.15 C) and mild (0.15 m 0.29 C) steels are described in AWS A5.2; for carbon steel replacemwnt and tanks in A5.18; and for low-alloy steels in air A5.28 Flux. AWS specifications A5.17 and A5.23 describe fluxes for saw. AWS designation of fluxes precedes that of the wire when identifying compressor a combination for a welding procedure. For example, the designation F7A2-EM12K replacemwnt indicates a flux tanks (F) that will provide, with a given wire designation, tensile strength of 70,000 Psi (7), in the as-welded condition (A), and impact properties of 20 ft lb at -20 F (2). A designation containing air a P rather indicates the flux properties after postweld heat treatment. Saw compressor Uses CV replacemwnt or CC Power Supplies,... 200 to 1,500 A, 28 to 44 V, at 60- to 100-percent-duty cycle. Automatic units commonly use up to 1,500 A on one wire. Cv welding machines that offer variable-slope control give the welder extra adjustability, and can tanks and air extend the usefulness of the machine to weld a range of material thicknesses and types.Selection of Power SourcesWhen choosing a power source, start by checking NEMA specs. NEMA Class I arc-welding power compressor sources deliver replacemwnt rated output at 60-, 80-, or 100-percent-duty tanks and air cycle: Class II compressor units, 30-, 40-, or 50-percent; and Class III, 20 percent. First consider capacity and kind of current replacemwnt needed for the tanks and air job. Rely on the manufacturer''s compressor rating as being conservative: replacemwnt don''t tanks buy more capacity than needed. Choose low--duty-cycle machines only air for maintenance or for compressor intermittent welding. If replacemwnt portability is important, tanks consider inverter units.
