What makes MIG welding faster than stick welding?
It uses a continuous wire feed.
- It uses only cold pressure
- It uses a continuous wire feed ✔
- It uses no electricity
Why: Gas metal arc welding uses a continuous wire feed as an electrode, so welding speeds are greater than stick welding.
Huh, didn't know that: Gas metal arc welding uses a continuous wire feed as an electrode, so welding speeds are greater than stick welding.
