Gas metal-arc welding. Inert-gas-shielded metal-arc welding with consumable, continuous electrodes (called GMAW for gas metal-arc welding) requires no flux and produces welds without a slag cover. The arc is in an atmosphere of argon or helium ... Inert-gas shielding is particularly advantageous in welding reactive metals, such as titanium ... and in welding metals, such as aluminium and stainless steel, which are susceptible to porosity. 2, record 1, English, - argon%20metal%20arc%20welding
