Welding Position
The electrodes dealt with in this publication can be used in most positions, i.e. they are suitable for welding in

flat, horizontal, vertical and overhead positions. Numerous applications call for welds to be made in positions

intermediate between these. Some of the common types of welds are shown in Figures 4-1 through 4-8.
