A common welding process that uses a continuously fed filler wire as an electrode

Also known as stick welding, this is one of the oldest and simplest welding processes

Uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to create the weld

Similar to MIG welding, but uses a tubular wire filled with flux instead of a solid wire

Feeds a continuous electrode and a layer of granular flux over the weld area

• The material you're working with
• The thickness of the material
• The welding position
• The joint design and project specifications
• The welding speed and productivity
• The environmental conditions
