Welding electrode has uses in various segments and its application may vary from airplane to car sectors. It is equally used in melting alloy and metals toys. The applications of welding electrode are high and thus it is purchased widely. If you don’t wish to spend huge cost on buying welding electrode for a particular purpose, you may rent a welding electrode when you need it. There are Generator and Welding machine rental in KuwaitGenerator suppliers in Kuwait Phone: +965 23712217 from where one can hire welding electrodes. 




The purpose of welding electrodes varies and so does the price. Welding electrodes are available in different costs and there are factors which may affect its price ranging. 

Some of the essential factors that can affect the price of welding electrodes are:

  • The properties and the compositions - To select a perfect electrode it is very important to determine the properties it has for the required application. The base material of the welding machinery must be equal to the properties of the base material. It must have approximately the same composition and the physical properties. It is also important to identify the chemical composition before making the selection.

  • The base material - It is also important to identify the base material strength properties of an electrode. One can determine whether the base material is magnetic or non magnetic. This indicates that how it will work with carbon or alloyed steel. If the base metal is not magnetic this means that the material is manganese steel such as aluminum, brass, copper or titanium.

  • The tensile strength - It is important to preven cracking or other weld in any welding process and this can be ensured by matching metal tensile strengths. When you wish to identify the tensile strength of electrode you can refer the guidelines and classification mentioned on the product. 

  • The welding current – While choosing the stick electrodes it is important to analyze its current. Some electrode can be used with only with AC or DC power sources. Some can be compatible with both. It is important to match the welding current of the electrode to the available power source. This can help gain the best results.
