Preparing for Welding

Proper preparation can help improve weld quality.

Before welding, remove excessive:

  • Rust
  • Paint
  • Oil
  • Grease
  • Dirt
  • Scale
  • Other surface contamination

Secure the workpiece correctly and select the appropriate welding settings according to the electrode manufacturer’s specifications.

Electrode Storage

Keep welding rods in a clean and dry environment and protect them against moisture.

Moisture-contaminated electrodes may negatively affect arc stability and weld quality. Keep unused rods securely stored in suitable packaging until required.

Welding Safety

Arc welding produces intense light, heat, sparks, fumes and molten metal.

Always wear suitable:

  • Welding helmet
  • Welding gloves
  • Protective clothing
  • Safety footwear
  • Respiratory protection where required

Ensure adequate ventilation and keep combustible materials away from the welding area.
