Cooling in seam welding is accomplished by ____.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A constant stream of water directed to the electrode near the weld is the most effective method of cooling in seam welding as it helps to dissipate heat quickly and prevent overheating which can cause defects in the weld. Immersion in salt water can lead to corrosion and is not a recommended cooling method. Allowing the weld to cool at room temperature or blowing air over the weld area may not be effective enough for rapid cooling.
