Welding Vocab 2

Subject : engineering
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.

18. The distance from which the electrode is from the base metal while you're welding.






19. A phenomenon associated with surface tension and resulting in the elevation or depression of liquids in capillaries






20. The property of being porous;being able to absorb fluids






21. 70% of the heat is concentrated in the workpiece; 30% of the heat is concentrated in the tungsten electrode; Deep penetration; Narrow weld area; welding other materials than aluminum or magnesium

27. Fastening firmly together






28. 'kilo- pound[- force] per square inch') is 1000 psi






29. Used to achieve better hardenability - which in turn improves its other mechanical properties. They are also used to increase corrosion resistance in certain environmental conditions. Difficult to weld.






30. Threshold Limit Value (TLV) of a chemical substance is a level to which it is believed a worker can be exposed day after day for a working lifetime without adverse health effects.






31. National Electrical Manufaturers Association






32. A low- carbon steel containing sufficient iron oxide to give a continuous evolution of carbon monoxide while the ingot is solidifying - resulting in a case or rim of metal virtually free of voids. Sheet and strip products made from rimmed steel ingot

37. A widely used abbreviation for Material Safety Data Sheet. A MSDS contains details of the hazards associated with a chemical - and gives information on its safe use.






38. Cut away material from the underside of (an object) so as to leave an overhanging portion in relief






39. 30% of the heat is concentrated in the workpiece; 70% of the heat in concentrated in the tungsten electrode; Shallow penetration; Wide weld area; used only for welding thin sheet metal where low current is sufficient.

49. The union of diverse things into one body or form or group






50. A condition that occurs when the arc does not follow its intended path from the electrode to the workpiece. Arc blow can cause undesirable weld beads.
