Welding Electrode

A welding electrode is a metal wire or rod used in welding to join two pieces of metal together. It conducts electrical current to create heat, melting the electrode and the metals being joined. As it melts, it forms a strong weld bond. Some electrodes also contain a coating that stabilizes the arc, prevents contamination, and improves the quality of the weld. They are chosen based on the type of metal being welded and the specific welding process, ensuring a secure and durable connection between metal parts.
