For reference, welding joins metals using high heat to melt the pieces. Stick welding, also known as Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), is a type of welding that uses an electrode, or stick, to create an arc between the metal and the electrode. The electrode is made of a flux-coated rod that has a metal core. Stick welding is relatively easy to learn, which makes it an excellent choice for those just starting.
There are many different welding processes, but stick welding is one of the most popular due to its versatility and affordability. Stick welding is for various thicknesses and materials, it is a versatile option for hobbyists and professionals. While stick welding has some drawbacks, such as the need for more prep work and the potential for uneven heating, overall, it is a versatile and affordable option.
Stick Welding welds metals such as mild steel, iron, and stainless steel. It is used on rusty or dirty metals and those with a coating of paint or other materials that would otherwise need to be removed before welding. Stick welding is best suited for materials that are thick or have a high level of corrosion. Other applications include welding in areas with high winds where welds shielded by gas may not be as effective.
