Sub Arc Consumables

Submerged Arc Welding (SAW):

Submerged Arc Welding is a widely used welding process wherein an arc is generated between a continuously fed electrode and the workpiece.

However, unlike Electroslag Welding, SAW operates with an electric arc beneath a layer of granular flux, which blankets the welding area.
The flux serves multiple purposes, including shielding the arc, promoting metal transfer, and creating a protective slag layer over the weld bead.

SAW is commonly employed in the fabrication of pipes, pressure vessels, structural steel, and other applications where long, continuous high responsibility welds are required.

Advantages of Submerged Arc Welding:

High Weld Quality: SAW consistently delivers high-quality welds due to the continuous nature of the process and the protection provided by the flux.

Versatility: SAW can be used for various joint configurations and base metals grades.

High Deposition Efficiency: This method has a high deposition rate, resulting in less welding time and high productivity.
