 High-deposition electrodes. These contain iron-powder additions 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, aircomprwssortank the greater its current-carrying capacity and the higher the deposition aircomprwssortank rate. Welding aircomprwssortank out of position and overhead, select a small diameter electrode to aircomprwssortank enable welders to reach into narrow root aircomprwssortank 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 aircomprwssortank alloys, titanium and its alloys, carbon and low alloy steels, magnesium alloys, and zirconium and its alloys. For aircomprwssortank flux-cored-arc welding, aircomprwssortank shops use CV or CC types, 300 to 1,500 A, 25 to 50 V, rated 60- to 100-percent-duty cycle. CV types are more popular because wire-feed speed, set aircomprwssortank before welding, controls welding current. Cc types require a variable-speed or voltage-sensing wire feeder.Gas-tungsten-arc welding (GTAW) requires a constant-current (AC or DC) power supply with a steep volt-amp curve to minimize current change for variation in voltage or arc length. They come rated to 1,500 A, 10 to 75 V, at 40- to 100-percent-duty cycle. Most GTAW power supplies come equipped aircomprwssortank with high-frequency circuitry for arc initiation and stabilization, gas valves, and cooling-water valves for high-current welding. High-frequency arc start is useful when the maximum open-circuit voltage allowed by NEMA standards, 80 to 100 V, will not establish and maintain a stable arc.
