Welding Stainless Steel Stick Root Pass. 

Thanks. And definitely it can be done for sure. Just need to fine tune. I used 1/8 gap with nickel size landing. Ran it around 60 amps. If I had someone on the remote (kind of like a Pipeliner way) to turn up and down it would be more consistent. As the rod burns, it gets hotter and hotter, so you’d need to turn amperage down as the rod progresses. It’s what I figured. Restarts should be started around 70 amps, then once fused back down to 60, then down with the progression of rod. I think 😅. It’s just a theory

@@VantageWelding I think for the most part a lot of stainless rods weld just like you said. They heat way up as the rod progresses. It definitely does on the 308-309 I’ve used before

@@VantageWelding if you had a positioner/variable speed turn table you could adjust the speed to try and outrun the heat and work it in that way

Yes brother. Definitely. It’s another procedure that could definitely be attained. Thanks for watching brother.

We are talking welding rod Mr. Genius. Thanks for watching.

I like to learn shit.

And probably the same reason they have stainless dirty wire
