Lincweld offers original GYS stick Machines.  In stick welding, contact between the rod electrode and workpiece ignites the arc. This creates a short circuit for a fraction of a second between the two poles, meaning that current can then flow. The arc burns between the workpiece and the electrode. This creates the required fusion heat.

Frequently Asked Question

What is a GYS stick Machine?

Imagine a metal rod coated in a special material. That's a stick electrode. A stick welder is a machine that uses electricity to melt this rod and the metal you're working on, fusing them together to create a strong weld. This type of welding is very common and goes by a few names: stick welding, shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), or covered electrode welding.

Are Stick Welders good?

Stick welders are a workhorse option in the welding world. Here's why they're good:

  • Strong welds: They excel at joining thicker metals because they offer deep penetration. This makes them ideal for heavy-duty projects.
  • Versatile: They can weld a variety of metals and work in various environments, even outdoors in windy conditions.
  • Cost-effective: They're generally less expensive to buy and maintain compared to other welding processes.

However, there are some downsides to consider:

  • Less finesse: They can be trickier to learn and master compared to other methods, and the weld finish might not be as smooth.
  • More splatter: The welding process creates more sparks and spatters, requiring extra safety gear and cleanup.

So, are they the best? It depends! If you need strong welds for thick metals and prioritize affordability, then a stick welder might be a great choice. But if you need a smoother finish for thinner materials, MIG welding might be a better option.
