Work piece dirty.
Remove all grease, oil, moisture, rust, paint, undercoating, and
dirt from work surface before welding.
Improper welding technique.
Place stringer bead in correct location(s) at joint during

Adjust work angle or widen groove to access bottom during
welding.
Momentarily hold arc on groove side walls when using weaving
technique.
Keep arc on leading edge of weld puddle.
Use correct gun angle of 0 to 15 degrees.
Insufficient heat input.
Select higher wire feed speed and/or select higher voltage
range.
Burn-through
Weld metal melting completely through base metal resulting in
holes where no metal remains.
Possible causes
Corrective actions
Excessive heat input.
Select lower voltage range and reduce wire feed speed.
Increase and/or maintain steady travel speed.
Incomplete fusion
Weld metal that is not parallel and does not cover
