Stick electrodes
A modern world would be unimaginable without electric arc welding - it is
one of the oldest processes for joining metals and used all over the world. It
is generally known as MMA (manual metal arc welding). Electric arc welding
with stick electrodes is still indispensable in steel and pipeline construction
and can be used under all weather conditions. Today, around 25 to 30% of
the world's welded products are produced with this process.

ProcessFor electric arc welding with stick electrodes, an electric arc is generatedbetween the stick electrode and the base material. In shielded metal arcwelding (SMAW) or manual metal arc welding (MMA) using coated stickelectrodes, the coating forms a protective gas shield and a slag, therebyprotecting the transferred metal droplets and the weld metal againstcontact with atmospheric oxygen.
Further functions of the coating are de-oxidation of the weld metal,increasing the metal recovery, compensating for burn-off and ensuringgood we�ing behaviour. In practical use there are three significant types ofcoating: rutile, basic and cellulosic and mixtures of these.
Electric arc welding with stick electrodes is one of the oldest andmost versatile welding processes. And it is also considered as one ofthe simplest and safest methods. It is used to weld almost all types ofmetals. Stick electrodes are even used for underwater welding.

Coating typesAccording to the European Norm DIN EN ISO 2560, there are a total ofeight different types of coated stick electrodes for arc welding of unalloyedsteels and fine-grained steel. The four main types are named a�er theirmain components:
» C (Cellulose) cellulose electrodes
» A (Acid) acid electrodes*
» R (Rutile) rutile electrodes
» B (Basic) basic electrodes
*Acid electrodes can hardly be found anymore and have been almost completelyreplaced by rutile electrodes.
These coating types are a very important differentiator for the unalloyedstick electrodes. Stick electrodes for high strength, creep resistant or high-alloyed steels according to the other EN standards are mostly coated withrutile or basic coating elements.
Cellulose-coated stick electrodes
Due to the high level of cellulose in the coating, they have excellentproperties for out-of-position welding, but poor properties for horizontalwelding. They are therefore mainly used for vertical-down welding on largepipes.
Rutile-coated stick electrodes
These electrodes are very popular due to their good welding properties.The welding arc is stable and calm and is easy to reignite, the seams arefinely rippled, and most of the slag comes off by itself. Rutile-coatedelectrodes have sufficient toughness properties, but are only suitable forout-of-position welding to a limited extent (high-alloy). BÖHLER electrodesfor under water welding are a special type namely rutile acid (RA). Theyhave a special sealing to protect against the water.
Basic-coated stick electrodes
The main advantages of basic electrodes are the outstanding toughnessproperties of the weld metal and its resistance to hot and cold cracks.Basic-coated electrodes have a coarse droplet material transfer, can beused to weld in all positions and have somewhat coarsely rippled seams.The slag can be relatively easily removed, but not as easily as with rutile-coated electrodes.

DRY SYSTEMBöhler Welding DRY SYSTEM is the efficient alternative for costly climatecontrolled storage and handling procedure, providing “oven dry” stickelectrodes straight from the vacuum packaging. Böhler Welding DRYSYSTEM avoids the necessity of re-drying, and use of holding ovens andquivers in welding applications with a potential risk of hydrogen induced orhydrogen assisted cracking. Safe welding with low-hydrogen weld metal isassured up to nine hours a�er opening the vacuum pack.
