When manual metal arc welding low carbon steel, which electrode covering will give the

greatest degree of penetration?

a. Iron powder.
b. Rutile.
c. Cellulosic.
d. Low hydrogen

Tig

When TIG welding austenitic stainless steel pipe, argon gas backing is called for. This is to:
a. Prevent oxidation
b. Prevent underbead cracking
c. Prevent porosity
d. Control the penetration bead shape

. Inherent rectification of the electrical output is produced in the arc when TIG welding using:
a. AC with a suppressor
b. AC without a suppressor
c. DC with reverse polarity
d. DC with straight polarity

When referring to TIG welding, the shielding gas could be:

a. Argon and hydrogen.
b. Argon and helium.
c. Argon and nitrogen.
d. All the above.

Which defect would you expect to get in TIG welds in non-deoxidised steel?
a. Undercut.
b. Porosity.
c. Tungsten inclusions.
d. Linear misalignment.

Argon purging on the root side is necessary in the TIG welding of stainless steel to:
a. Obtain full penetration.
b. Obtain full fusion.
c. Avoid porosity in the root.
d. Obtain a satisfactory weld surface finish.
