GENERAL DIRECTION: Read the directions carefully. No erasure/s. Ask only your professor.
I. MULTIPLE CHOICE. Choose the correct answer. Write only the Capital letter.
A. Gruuve F. Filet K. Tangsten P. Welding Machine U. Argon/Helium
B. Molten wire G. GMAW L. Short Circuit Metal Transfer Q. Wire Feeder V. Filler Rod
C. Axial spray transfer H. SMAW M. Fillet R. Stick Welding W. Shielding Electrode
D. Oxygen I. Filler Wire N. Electric arc S. Weld Puddle X. Electric Wire
E. Electrode Holder J. Welding Holder O. Short Circuit Molten Transfer T. Tungsten Y. Groove
II. True or False. Write True if the statement is true, if False underline the word/s that makes it false and make the necessary
correction to make it true. (2points each)
1. The molten pool of metal is surrounded and protected by a flux and a covering of slag produced as the coating of the
electrode burns or vaporizes
2. When grinding the electrode its point must point in the direction of the rotation of the electrode so the grinding traces will lie
length ways the electrode.
3. A small pointed angle gives a wider weld pool and the larger the pointed angle the narrow the weld pool.
4. SMAW is the most widely used arc welding process in the United States
5. The electric arc creates enough heat to melt both the cable and the base material
6. Cylinders should be located in an area away from arc welding, cutting, heat, sparks, and flame
7. GMAW electrodes are commonly packaged on spools and coils ranging from 1lb to 100lbs
8. To achieve axial spray transfer, binary blends containing argon + 1-5 % oxygen or argon + CO, where the CO levels are 18% or less
9. The most frequently used dimensions for TIG welding electrodes are 1.6 - 2.4 - 3.2 and 4 mm.
10. Other torches are constructed with Heating tubes. Water-cooled torches are mainly used for welding with larger current intensities
and AC-welding.
