Q

The shielding gas compostion for semi-automatic welding is important because:

  1. the drive rolls wear out faster with argon mixes
  2. the strength and brittleness of the weld is affected
  3. the acetylene will clog up the gun liner
  4. the parts must be post-braze annealed
A

the strength and brittleness of the weld is affected

Q

Submergered arc welding producedures always identify a flux/electrodes combination. Why?

  1. changing either flux of electrode affects weld properties
  2. changing either flux or electrode makes the designation longer
  3. changing either flux or electrode affects useable polarity
  4. changing either flux of electrode affects positions of useablity
A

changing either flux of electrode affects weld properties
