VI Active
Fluxes
- Active
fluxes produce changes in weld metal chemistry when welding is
changed. Active fluxes are restricted
to single or minimal multipass welding. Neutral
Fluxes
- Neutral
fluxes produce little change to mechanical properties when adjusting
the voltage. Best utilized when
welding on plate thickness of one inch or
more.
