A welding rod provides:
stability for the welding torch |
|
the joining material for a weld |
|
fuel for the welding torch |
|
protection for the welder |
The joining material for a weld is called a welding or filler rod and is available in a variety of diameters and alloys for different welding tasks.
These tools are called:
planes |
|
rasps |
|
chisels |
|
files |
Wood chisels are used to shape or smooth wood surfaces. They come in a variety of widths and can be used with hand power or tapped with a mallet when deeper cuts need to be made.
Which of the following statements about welding is not true?
no filler metal is required when welding |
|
electric-arc welding is safer than oxyacetylene welding |
|
a weld can often be stronger than the base materials alone |
|
welding is done at higher temperatures than soldering |
Welding is a high-temperature process that involves melting the base metals in the objects to be joined to fuse them together. A filler metal is used to provide additional material to make up a joint that, depending on the weld type, can be stronger than the base materials alone. Oxyacetylene welding is a welding process that uses a torch fueled with oxygen and acetylene gases. Electric-arc welding utlizes electric current in a safer welding process (it doesn't involve burning explosive gases) that enables a wide variety of specialized applications like stick, MIG (metal inert gas), and TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding.
The primary difference between a standard level and a bullseye level is which of the following?
a standard level has only one bubble to center |
|
a standard level can measure across two dimensions |
|
a bullseye level has only one bubble to center |
|
a bullseye level can measure across two dimensions |
Levels utlize a fluid-filled tube containing a bubble that is centered when the surface is horizontal (level) or vertical (plumb) along the direction of the tube. While a standard level can measure along a single dimension, a bullseye level is circular and can indicate the levelness of a two dimensional plane.
An arc-welder creates heat using:
natural gas |
|
oxyacetylene |
|
high voltage electricity |
|
propane |
