Choosing the Right Wire Diameter for Welding

Posted by OTC DAIHEN on November 3, 2023

Is the welding wire you're using too small, too large or just right? Welding wire is an essential component of the welding process as it serves as the electrode and filler material, melting and fusing with the base metal to create the joint.

The welding wire diameter can significantly influence the quality of the weld, its strength and the overall efficiency of a welding production line. Choosing the right welding wire is key to production efficiency and cost savings.

Why Welding Parameters are So Important to Finished Quality

Posted by OTC DAIHEN on May 31, 2022

When you're operating a production line, finished quality is vital to the success of your business. Engineers will spend a significant amount of time developing the specifications for your product, including developing the exact welding parameters for each part of the process. But how important are these welding parameters to the quality of the weld and your finished product? Very important!

Using improper parameters can lead to excess weld spatter, creating a need for additional cleanup of welds. A cold weld will sit high above the surface of the metalwork and result in a lack of fusion in the weld root, creating a weak joint and requiring time-consuming cleanup.
