- Arc length is too long
- Reduce arc length
- Voltage is too high
- Reduce voltage
Incomplete Fusion
- Insufficient Heat Input
- Increase amperage and/or select larger electrode
- Improper Welding Technique
- Place stringer bead in proper location(s) at joint during welding.
- Adjust work angle or widen groove to access bottom during welding.
