Abstract

This investigation is to review the technique of using ACTIVATED FLUX for optimum penetration & hardness of MIG welding. Two kind of fluxes, Al2O3 and Fe2O3 used on a mild steel plates of 50mm x 50mm square and 8 mm thick. The fluxes used were packed in powered form & applied through a thin layer of flux. The experimental results indicates that the Activated metal inert gas (Activated MIG) welding penetration and welding hardness increased compared to normal Metal insert gas (MIG) welding also known as Gas Metal Arch Welding (GMAW).
