In 1904, Oscar Kjellberg, a Swedish
engineer, was working on ships and

boilers in Gothenburg, Sweden. He was
not satisfied with the quality of repair
jobs. His quest for a better technology
led to the invention of the world's first
covered electrode. And thus, Elektriska
Svetsnings Aktie Bolaget (ESAB) was
born. Today, ESAB leads the world in
providing welding and cutting solutions.
At ESAB, every problem is an
opportunity, every sale start of an
enduring relationship. From supplying
welding equipment to consumables,
cutting machines to working
environment products, ESAB, today has
established itself as one of the leading
suppliers of welding, cutting and working
environment solutions in the country.
ESAB products are now an integral
part of industries like Shipbuilding,
Petrochemical, Construction, Transport,
Offshore, Energy and Repair and
Maintenance.
The ESAB group belongs to the world
renowned Charter Plc. Group, UK, and
employs around 8000 people of which
more than 600 are engaged in research
and development at centres in Sweden,
Holland, UK, Germany, USA, Brazil and
India.
In India, ESAB was formally
incorporated on 10th November 1987,
and it has expanded through a number of
acquisitions. The organisation operates
five manufacturing facilities backed by
world-class R&D.

Classification
AWS A5.1 : E 6012

IS 814 : ER 4124
DESCRIPTION
ESAB FERROSPEED is one of the most popular and
wellknown welding electrodes in India for decades. ESAB
FERROSPEED is a rutile-coated electrode for welding
general-purpose structures that are not subjected to
heavy dynamic loading, and is specially designed for
higher tolerance to less cleaned plates and poor joint
fit-ups. Unique balance of arc force and slag fluidity
makes the electrode easily manoeuvrable in all positions
and because of its versatility and economy, has found
wide acceptance for welding mild steel. The weld
provides good penetration and an easily detachable
slag. The electrode has high current carrying capacity
and produces relatively high strength weld metal.

EN ISO 18273: S Al 4047 (AISi12(A))
EN ISO 18273 : S AI 4047 (AISi12)
DESCRIPTION
OK Tigrod 4047 was originally developed as a brazing
alloy to take advantage of its low melting point and narrow freezing range. In addition, it has a higher silicon
content than OK Tigrod 4043, which provides increased
fluidity and reduced shrinkage. Hot cracking is significantly reduced when using OK Autrod 4047 as a filler
alloy. The alloy may be used in applications at sustained
elevated temperatures. Non - heat treatable.

OK TIGROD 5183
Classification
SFA/AWS A5.10 : R5183

EN ISO 18273: S Al 5183
(AlMg4, 5Mno, 7(A))
DESCRIPTION
OK Tigrod 5183 was developed to provide the highest possible strength in tthe asweled condition of alloy
AA 5083 and similar high magnesium alloys. The more
common OK Tigrod 5356 will typically fail to meet the
as-welded tensile requirements of AA 5083. The alloy
is typically utilised in marine and structural applications
where high strength, high impact fracture toughness
and exposure to corrosive elements are important. The
alloy is not recommended for elevated temperature applications due to its susceptibility to stress corrosion
cracking. The alloy is non - heat treatable.

DESCRIPTION
OK Tigrod 5356 is the most widely used welding alloy
and can be classified as a general-purpose type filler
alloy. OK Tigrod 5356 is typically chosen because of
its relatively high shear strength. The 5XXX alloy base
material, welded with OK Tigrod 5356, with a weld pool
chemistry greater than 3% Mg and service temperatures in excess of 65OC, is susceptible to stress corrosion cracking. The alloy is non - heat treatable.

OK AUTROD 16.95
Classification
EN ISO 14343 G 18 8 Mn
DESCRIPTION
A continous solid corrosion resisting chromium-nickelmanganese wire for welding of austenitic stainless alloys of 18% Cr, 8% Ni, 7% Mn types.
OK Autrod 16.95 has a general corrosion ressistance
similar to that of the corresponding parent metal. The
higher sillicon content improves the welding properties,
such as wetting. The product is a modified variant of
ER307, basically with a higher Mn content to make the
weld metal less sensitive to hot cracking. When used
for joining dissimilar materials the corrosion resistance
is of secondary importance. The alloy is used in a wide
range of applications across the industry such as joining of austenitic, manganese, work hardenable steels
as well as armourplate and heat resistant steels.

DESCRIPTION
OK Autrod 5183 was developed to provide the highest
strengths possible in the as welded condition of alloy AA
5083 and other similar high magnesium alloys. The more
common OK Autrod 5356 will typically fail to meet the
as - welded tensile requirements of AA 5083. The alloy
is typically utilised in marine and structural applications
where high strengths, high fracture toughness for impact
resistance and exposure to corrosive elements are
important. The alloy is not recommended for elevated
temperature applications due to its susceptibility to stress
corrosion cracking. The alloy is non-heat treatable.

OKTUBROD 15.00A
A fully basic flux cored wire
Classification AWS A5.20: E71T-5
DESCRIPTION
OK TUBROD 15.00A is a fully basic flux cored wire producing very low hydrogen quality weldmetal with high
resistance to cracking in joints under restraint. The
smooth metal transfer facilitates easy deposition even
in position welding. Fillet contour is flat, with equal leg
lengths & uniform sidewall wetting. The slag system alloys for excellent welding in all positions with virtually no
spatter. The wire and slag system design prevents any
absorption of moisture and very low levels of hydrogen
are achieved in the weldmet. Compared to the seamless
varieties, there is no inconsistency in fill-ratio and higher
deposition rates are possible. Special surface coating of
the wires ensures a long shelf life and trouble free feeding. Weldmet are radiographically sound.

HYDROGEN: 5ml/100g max, weld metal (redried flux)
GRAIN SIZE: 0.2-1.6 mm (10 x 65 mesh)
REDRYING: 300+/- 25OC/2-4 hrs
APPLICATIONS
For offshore constructions, pressure vessels including those for nuclear industries requiring good CTOD
values, power generation, shipbuilding, piep mills, civil
constructions, transport industries, etc, OK Flux 10.62 is
designed for single and multiwire procedures for butt fillet welds of mild, medium and high tensile steels as well
as low alloyed steels. Works equally well on DC and AC
current. Single layer and multilayer welding of unlimited
plate thickness, with impact strength down to -40/60OC,
when used with an appropriate alloyed wire by SAW.
The weld metal can be suitably controlled.

Consumables for 9% Ni Steels

LNG TANK FABRICATION
LNG Storage tanks are usually fabricated from 9% Ni steels to provide a combination of properties at a reasonable
price. Quenched & tempered 9% Ni Steels has excellent low temperature properties and is not susceptible to under
bead cracking or excessive hardening in the HAZ on account of its low carbon. Esab offers a complete range of
proven consumables.
Welding
Consumables
DESCRIPTION
Nickel Based Consumables

The tensile strength of the high Nickel alloy weld metal is close to that of 9% nickel steels and has high resistance
to brittle fracture, good impact strength at -196C, lateral expansion, side bend test and yield strength properties.
Special Stainless Steel Consumables are also available for LNG transport tanks and associated piping.
APPLICATIONS
The MMA electrodes are designed to weld on AC, largely to eliminate the magnetic arc blow problem of 9% nickel
steels. SAW is preferred for cicumferential welds and MMA for the vertical welds. Smaller diameter wires (1.6mm)
deliver better impact values. 9% nickel steels can be welded without pre and post weld treatment up to 60 mm, as
per ASME code, OK 92.55 is Preferred, when higher impact values are specified.

It is recommended not to redry covered electrodes more

than three times.
RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR
THE
STORAGE,
REDRYING AND HANDLING OF ESAB COVERED
ELECTRODES.
Holding Oven
General Information
All covered electrodes are sensitive to moisture reabsorption to a greater or lesser degree. Care must be
taken during storage and handling to prevent moisture
being re-absorbed.
Storage
Covered electrodes of any type will pick up moisture
only very slowly if they are stored under the following
climatic conditions:
The holding oven is used for intermediate storage to

avoid moisture pick-up in the coating of low - hydrogen
electrodes and acid rutile stainless electrodes. The
electrodes which should be stored in the holding oven
are:
Welding
Consumables
STORAGE AND HANDLING
1. Electrodes that have been redried.

2. Electrodes that have been removed from thier hermetically - sealed container.
3. Electrodes that are considered to be in good condition and are transferred directly from the store room
after unpacking.
Holding over temperature : 120 - 150OC
At Temperatures
During winter, it is possible to have low relative humidity
by keeping the temperature in the storeroom at least
10OC above the outdoor temperature. During certain
periods in the summer and in a tropical climate,
sufficiently low relative humidity can be maintained by
air dehumidification.
Redrying
Low-hydrogen basic electrodes should be redried before
use whenever there are application requirements relating
to weldmetal hydrogen content and / or radiographic
soundness (not needed for VacPac).
Acid rutile stainless electrodes and all types of basic
electrodes may produce pores in the weld if they have
not been stored in sufficiently dry conditions. Redrying
the electrode will restore their usability.
Mild steel rutile and acid electrodes normally need no
redrying.
Cellulose electrodes must not be redried.
Electrodes which are seriously damaged by moisture
can normally not be redried. These electrodes should
be scrapped.
Precautions on Site
Keep the electrodes in electrically - heated quivers at
a minimum temperature of 70OC. After work return the
remaining electrodes to the holding oven.
Damaged Coating
Mechanically damaged electrodes on which parts of
the coating are missing will not perform correctly and
should be scrapped.
VacPac
Electrodes in VacPac will not pick up any moisture
during storage. They require no redrying before use,
provided the package is undamaged. This is indicated
by a vacuum in the package.
Handling VacPac Electrodes
Protect VacPac from damage at all times.
The outer board packaging offers extra protection from
mechanical damage to the metal foil. Handle the single
inner, metal foil, VacPac with special care.
Do not use a knife or any other sharp object to open the
outer board packaging.
Redrying Conditions
Before using VacPac Electrodes
Redrying temperatures and holding times are specified

on the label and in the product specification.
Check if the protective foil still contains a vacuum. If the

vacuum has been lost, redry the electrodes before use.
The redrying temperature is the temperature in the bulk

of the electrodes.
Cut open the protective foil at one end.
The redrying time is measured from the point at which

the redrying temperature has been reached.
Do not stack more than four layers of electrodes in the
redrying oven.
Do not take out more than one eletrode at a time,

thereby, ensuring that the remaining electrodes are still
protected inside the package. Put the top back on the
plastic capsule.
Discard or redry electrodes that have been exposed to
the atmosphere in an opened VacPac for more than 12
hours.

of the pipe material is an important consideration prior
to welding; otherwise difficulties may be experienced on
high strength pipe material from the high carbon and
manganese contents, particularly in cold weather. It is
therefore advisable, depending on the surrounding temperature and weather conditions, to preheat the entire
pipe circumference before applying the stringer bead.

Introduction
In recent years, pressure to increase productivity and
reduce costs has been the main diving force behind the
adoption of flux cored wires by fabricators. Productivity, ease of use and quality are the three main virtues
on which the increasing popularity of Flux cored wires
rest.
The welding processes with which flux cored wire must
mainly compete are MMAW and semi automatic welding with solid wire (MIG/MAG). The superior productivity and the accompanying improved economics of flux
cored wire welding over MMAW are very apparent in the
sample case considered in Example. Even at the same
duty cycle as MMAW cored wire process can give much
higher productivity because it can operate at much higher current densities.
The deposition data may be less convincing in case
of flux-cored wire welding in comparison to MIG/MAG
welding. The ease of use of flux cored wires in out of
position welding coupled with its greater process tolerance and comfort is an important aspect. The amount
of time and money spent on reworking defects are less
in flux cored welding in comparison to MIG welding and
it becomes a very viable alternative to MIG/MAG welding. Possible elimination of quality problems like lack of
fusion, cold laps, danger of hydrogen embrittlement etc.
through the use of flux-cored wires has been a very important criterion for its selection all around the world for
critical fabrication.
THE CORED WIRE PROCESS
Main Features
Fundamentally the process of MIG/MAG welding and
utilises the same equipment as that for solid wire albeit of larger capacity in some cases. The important
difference between MIG/MAG welding with solid wire
and cored wire is performance, productivity, welding
characteristics and weld metal integrity. Variations to
suit a particular application or physical requirement are
more easily achieved than with solid wire. This involves
changes in the filling formulation and percentage in a
similar way to that of manual arc electrodes. The coating formulation and thickness can have a significant effect, whereas little can be done with the electrode core
wire alone to improve aspects of performance.
involve the purchase of new equipment but the undisputed increase in productivity will usually guarantee a
return on capital invested in less than one year.
Deposition
The higher deposition rate from cored wires relies upon
the 12R heating effect that is greater than with solid
wires, for a given current.
With the solid wire the total cross section carries all of
the current but with metal cored wires a partial amount
is carried by the core and in the case of flux cored wire
all of the current is conducted by the tube. Thereby the
current density and heating effect ensures a higher
burn-off rate from cored wires.
SOLID
METAL CORED
FLUX CORED
Cored Wire Cross-section
Closed Butt - This type predominate the Tubrod range
lending itself to a wide variety of sizes and fill percentages between 18-33% depending on size required.
Overlap frequently the need arises to fill with the normal
slag former and a high percentage of additional alloying
elements. Stainless steel and hardsurfacing types are
typical example where this section is employed with fill
percentages between 30-50%. The thinner wall section
has the advantage of even higher current density and
hence deposition rates.
Economics
Whilst there are higher productivity processes available, such as submerged arc and robotics, cored wire
semiautomatic MIG offers the fabricator a more flexible
process with genuine increases in productivity for the
least capital expenditure. Where solid wire is already in
use this may only involve a change of accessories such
as feed rolls and torch consumables. A move to cored
wire MIG/MAG from the use of manual arc will obviously

OK Tubrod Cored Wires

The ESAB range consist of rutile and fully basic flux
cored wires, some of which are self-shielded, and a
range of metal cored wires. For general fabrication work
the metal cored type could satisfy the majority of applications, so the need for three principal types may be
questioned. There
are a number of factors to be considered and can be

summarised as follows:
PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS
Rutile: The rutile (E70T-1) cored wires are OK Tubrod 15.12 and 15.16 for use with CO2 or CO2 shielding gases. They are designed for heavy deposition
in the flat/HV positions.
Exceptionally smooth high operating current characteristics, giving low spatter and regular weld appearance.
Very high deposition rates. Slag removal is effortless
and self-releasing on HV fillets.
Ideally suited to the main production of heavy equipment in a wide variety of mild & medium tensile
steels
DC electrode positive.
Welding
Consumables
Downhand Rutile Flux Cored Wires are easy to usewith a smooth arc action giving excellent weld appearance with easy slag detachment.
Positional Rutile Flux Cored Wires when used with
Argon rich gas offer spray transfer welding with a
high level of operator appeal.
Basic Flux Cored Wires produce a higher and more
consistent level of mechanical properties. They
also produce radiographic standard deposits with
ease when compared to both rutile and metal cored

All OK Tubrod metal cored wires produces low hydrogen quality weld metal
Metal cored wires have the advantage in catering
for the majority of downhand applications at one
current setting. The only variable necessary is the
travel speed that will determine the size of deposit.
SHIELDING GASES
C/Mn & Low alloy wires: A variety of shielding gases are
now in regular use for the MIG/MAG cored wire process
and normally involve CO2 Ar, O2 and He. CO2 is the only
gas for use singularly but can be found in mixtures of
all the others to bring about various welding characteristics, although Ar is always the principle gas when mixtures are employed.
Water cooling sometimes required

With regard to flux cored wires, all except Tubrod 15.12
may be used with Ar + CO2 mixtures to enhance operability with reduced spatter and fume levels, but penetrationwill be decreased.
O2 and He Additions
Although in principal used for MIG welding of stainless
steel, O2 promote good wetting and reduces the droplet
size and surface tension of the weld metal. However, O2
does have the effect of decreasing alloy transfer across
the arc and it is particularly important to be aware of this
during welding low alloy steels when a matching composition is required or in the case of Mn when tensile
strength is critical
Effect on weld shape
CO2 Gas:This gas is normally referred to as an active

gas as it is not chemically inert, hence the term MAG.
It is the least expensive gas, but does have disadvantages when compared to Ar based types
100% A
Arr
Higher levels of spatter

Narrow voltage band - machine setting is critical
Does not produce a true spray transfer condition
80% Ar + 20% CO2
Advantage:
Inexpensive
Low heat radiation
Superior depth to width ratio
Lower hydrogen in weld metal
The majority of the Tubrod flux cored wires may be used
with CO2 only and produces good results. The fully basic wires such as Tubrod 15.00 and 15.25 will in fact
produce superior physical characteristics when used
with CO2
Argon/CO2 Mixtures
The most popular gas mixture both for C/Mn solid wire
and cored wire is that of Argon+ 15-20% CO2 and although it is more expensive, generally by a factor of
three, the advantages certainly justify its use
Reduced spatter through smoother arc action
Lower fume generation

Flow Rate
It is important that flow rate at the torch is maintained
within 15-20 litres per minute for flux cored wires and
18-20 litres per minute for metal cored wires.
OPERATING CONDITIONS
Polarity
DC electrode positive is recommended for the cored Tubrod wires since the use of the negative pole produces
inferior running characteristics and can occasionally
produce porosity.
Some Tubrod wires however, are designed to operate
on both DC positive & negative polarity.
Voltage
Arc voltage has a direct influence on the arc length that
controls the weld shape depth of penetration and spatter
level. As the arc voltage is reduced the penetration increases and this is particularly important in V butt joints.
An increase in voltage will result in a long arc length and
increase the risk of porosity and undercut.
When operating on dip transfer for positional welding
at comparatively low currents the arc voltage should be
kept at the highest practicable level to ensure adequate
sidewall fusion.
Amperage
when positional welding with 1.0mm, 1.2mm, and 1.4

mm wires, and when the dip transfer mode is used at
current below 220 amps.
Tubrod metal cored wires eliminate the need for current
variations relative to plate thickness since one current
setting for a given wire size will cater to 90% of flat and
HV applications. The weld cross-section is controlled
by the travel speed whereas solid wire would require
considerable current resetting to achieve the same flexibility.
Plate preparation
Due to superior sidewall fusion obtained particularly
from the metal cored wires the combined angles of
preparations can generally be reduced. A V-butt joint for
instance that would normally need a 60 included angle
for manual arc welding can be reduced to 45 thereby
saving plate and hence weld metal to fill the joint.
Welding
Consumables
With flux cored wires the amperage used is ideally at

the top half of the range specified for a particular size,
except
The often-greater depth of fusion can increase the effective throat thickness and consequently allow a reduction
in leg length by up to 20%. The savings in weld metal
are considerable as can be seen from FIG.6 and some
certification authorities will permit a reduction of 50% in
weld dimensions for single pass fillets when produced
fully automatically.
WELDING TECHNIQUES
Torch angles
Flux cored wires
With OK Tubrod flux cored wires the torch angle has a
significant effect on slag control and weld deposit profile. For both fillet and butt joints the recommended angle between the wire axis and the line of joint is between
60 - 70 and using a backhand technique i.e. pulling,
with the wire pointing toward the completed weld. In this
way the arc force prevents the slag from running in front
of the line of the weld pool and reduces the risk of slag
traps. For HV fillets the wire tip should be directed toward the bottom plate at approximately 3-mm from the
line of the joint with a torch angle of 45 from the vertical
plate.
In certain circumstances the forehand technique i.e.
pushing can be used to advantage. On small fillet welds
where penetration is not of paramount importance the
higher welding speeds required are such that the molten slag is prevented from running ahead of the weld
pool. This also has the advantage of producing a mitre
fillet where as the backhand method tends to produce a
more convex profile.
Metal cored wires
The higher levels of de-oxidation and higher current density available with cored wires allows them to be used
where mill scale and primer have to be tolerated. This
is particularly so with the metal and basic cored wires,
since the rutile types are the least tolerant. However, in
case of primer the degree of success will depend on the
type and thickness, but generally Tubrod basic wires will
achieve porosity free welds at speeds 45% faster than
solid wires and the Tubrod metal cored wires are approximately 35% faster
Maximum penetration is obtained using a backhand

(pulling technique with a torch angle of 70/80 between
the wire axis and the joint line. This will also serve to optimise gas coverage and is particularly relevant to multipass butt welds.The fillet and lap welds superior weld
appearance is achieved using a torch angle of 60/70
and a forehand technique (push). This results in a more
even distribution of weld metal, accompanied by a reduction in penetration.
For optimum radiographic standards with flux cored

wires excessive rust and scale should be removed by
grinding which will also serve to reduce slag formation
to a minimum when using metal cored wires.
Further economies can be achieved from a reduction in
weld metal required on single pass fillet joints.

Torch angles and manipulation

Vertical butt-welds
Vertical fillet welds
Preparation with root face
A torch angle of 100 above the horizontal may be used for

root passes to assist arc stability and penetration control.
Triangular weaves for single pass fillets. If necessary

subsequent weld runs should be deposited using
techniques similar to that for Filling vertical butt joints.
No weaving is necessary for single pass fillets when
using OK Tubrod 15.15
Single Pass
Preparation with feather edges

Torch angles and manipulation
Restrict vertical down technique to thin plate or leg lengths of 6

mm maximum. May be used for first pass of multipass joints.
130
Travel Speed
In addition the use of slow travel speeds should be

avoided when low temperature impact properties are required. While the joint may be filled in fewer passes the
individual weld deposits will be of large cross-section
and therefore impact resistance will be reduced. Apart
from this, in the case of flux cored wires there is the obvious difficulty of slag control to be considered.
Positional Welding
The majority of Tubrod cored wires are capable of positional welding in the smaller sizes. However, the choice
of consumable must be given careful consideration in
relation to the proposed applications because the various ranges require quite different manipulation techniques for optimum results.
Rutile (EX1 T-1) Types
This type of wire allows the use of the spray transfer
mode in all positions including overhead and as such
affords very high deposition rates. In addition, the exceptional fusion Characteristics that results will have
significant effect on the production of defect free welds.
This is particularly relevant when compared to solid wire
that by necessity can only be used for positional welding
in the dip transfer mode. The reduced depth of fusion
involved together with the greater degree of skill and
concentration demanded will increase the risk of fusion
related defects. OK Tubrod 15.15 can achieve in excess
of 4kg/hr in the vertical position compared to manual arc
at approximately 2kg/ hr.
Metal Cored (EX1T-G) and Fully Basic (EX1T-5)

These two groups may be treated as one with regard
to positional welding techniques. To maintain optimum
control welding is limited to the 1.0mm and 1.4mm sizes
and is restricted to the dip transfer mode where greater
welder skill is involved. The manipulation required be
similar to that used for solid wire in that initial passes
in the vertical position are completed using a triangular
weave motion.
Welding
Consumables
Travel speed has an important influence on penetration.

For example when using a 1.6mm metal cored wire at
305A an increase in travel speed from 30cms/min to
60cms/min approximately doubles penetration beyond
the root of a fillet. At speeds in excess of 80/100 cms/
min penetration will decrease. Similarly a reduction in
penetration will occur if the welding speed should fall to
below 30cms/min, as the arc can impinge on the molten
pool in preference to the base material.
ing is recommended and this type of wire is eminently

suitable for use with these materials and the speed of
welding will be significantly higher.
This is to ensure that the weld profile remains flat and

not peaked, which would otherwise occur leading to
possible lack of fusion defects at the edges after further
welding as in the case of multipass joints.
The conventional straight weave may be used but only
in circumstances when the face of the previous pass is
wide enough such that the effect of heat sink will maintain a flat profile automatically.
Whilst the dip transfer method is slow and often demanding in terms of operator concentration the arc energy is
greater than with solid wire and the possibility of defects,
especially cold lapping is substantially reduced.
The root pass in an open butt weld, where full penetration is required from one side is always the most difficult regardless of welding process or position. However,
when using Tubrod metal and basic cored wires the use
of dip transfer and vertical down welding can be used
to good advantage. Excellent results can be achieved
more easily if it is rapid and dispensing with a root face
can reduce plate preparation costs.
Fillet joints may be welded using either the vertical up
or vertical down techniques. The choice will depend on
the thickness of material and degree of root penetration desired. Multi-pass joints should be completed on
a similar basis to that of butt welds using the vertical up
technique.
The required techniques for vertical up welding is almost identical to those employed by manual metal arc
for both fillet and butt joints. However, root panes in
open butt welds where a uniform bead of penetration
required, when welded from one side are not recommended. This is due to the high arc energy and fluidity
of the weld pool as well as the need to maintain highly
accurate joint preparation that is considered not practical. In such circumstances the use of non-fusible back-

Electrode extension
This term describe the distance between the contact tip
of the torch and the work piece, some times described
as electrode stickout. The current conditions should be
set for the job in hand but during welding it may be nec-
essary to reduce the amount of heat in the weld pool to

accommodate poor fit-up or out of position welding. An
increase in the stickout length and the extra electrical resistance that results will produce a cooler less fluid weld
pool. Similarly any decrease in electrode extension will
have the effect of increasing welding current and this
characteristic can be of benefit in controlling penetration; especially where inconsistent fit-up is encountered.
During actual welding any large variation will produce

an inconsistent weld deposit and excessive electrode
extension has the effect of reducing the amperage
drawn from the power source. Increasing the wire feed
speed to compensate for the current drop will result in a
significant increase in weld metal deposition.

consider the following items.

1. Area of cross-section of the weld
2. Length of the weld
E
P =
Weight of electrode or wire required
W =
Weight per unit length of weld metal
Length of weld (meter)
E =
Deposition efficiency
3. Volume of the weld in cubic centimetre
* Includes 2 stub loss.
4. Weight of the weld metal per cubic centimetre
It must be remembered that when deposition tests are performed in the laboratory, the deposition efficiency is calculated
by the formula:
The area of the cross-section (the triangle) in the fillet

weld shown below is equal to one half the base times
the height. The volume of the weld is equal to the area
times the length, and the weight of the weld then, is the
volume times the weight of the material (steel) per cubic
centimetre.
Weight of metal deposited

Deposition Efficiency = Weight of electrode consumed
This does not take stub loss into consideration. The

chart below shows how the length of the stub effects the
laboratory-established efficiency.

DEPOSITION EFFICIENCY
The deposition efficiency of an electrode or welding wire
indicates the portion of that product you can expect to
be deposited as weld metal. Losses due to slag, spatter, fume and in the case of semi automatic or automatic
welding processes, the ends cut before each weld and
the wire left in the feed cable make no process 100%
efficient.
