Abstract
In the present work, gas metal arc welding (GMAW) with flux-cored wires and solid wires using shielding gas has been adopted for welding stainless steel. Five different compositions of shielding gas are used with flux-cored wire and three with solid wire. Spatter rates, chemical compositions, tensile strength and elongation tests have been performed and are reported. The spotter rates of the sample made using flux-cored wires are less than that for the sample made using solid wire. The ultimate tensile strength and elongation are not influenced by the composition of the shielding gas.
