This type of welding provides high heat to a small area producing a strong weld. Shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), or stick electrode welding, relies on the flux covering the electrode to melt during ...

Common welding processes include: Stick electrode welding or shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) is a common welding process. The flux covering the electrode melts during welding or brazing to forming a ...

It is compatible with most types of welding, including MIG, TIG, SMAW (stick), and resistance (spot welding). Once prepped and coated, the metal is ready for repair. There is nothing else you need to ...
