Welding 2
Question | Answer |
---|---|
An element or gas with no active properties. | Inert |
Metal inert gas. | MIG |
The use of electrodes on each side of two pieces are fused surface-to-surface. | Resistance spot welding |
An inert gas such as argon or helium or a reactive gas such as CO2. | Shielding gas |
An element or gas with properties that will actively Combine with other elements at a high temperature. | Reactive |
MIG welding is the preferred method of repairing vehicles. | True |
Dip a welding gun in water to cool it only in emergencies. | False, water will destroy the torch |
Keep work area, equipment, and clothing dry because even a slight amount of moisture can conduct enough electricity to cause sever shock. | True |
Ultra Violate (UV) Radiation from a welding arc is strong enough to sunburn or blister bare skin. | True |
Resistance spot welding is used for welding many of the unibody’s thin-gauge sections. | True |
MIG requires careful setting of electrical components. | True |
As the arc is struck, a shielding gas is forced around the electrode wire in MIG welding. | True |
Proper ventilation is important because the arc can reduce oxygen in the breathing zone around a welding activity. | False, proper ventilation is important because of fumes and vapors caused by welding. |
Check the proper feeding of wire by placing your finger over the contact tip. | False, never put your finger over the contact tip |
Eyes cannot be hurt by an arc flash at a distance of 10 feet away. | False, UV rays can affect eyes as far as 50 ft away. |
MIG is necessary for auto collision repair because of the wide use of | High Strength Steel (HSS) |
The recommended shielding gas for auto collision repair is | 75% argon, 25% CO2 |
