Argon-Arc Welding Wire is a type of welding wire that offers superior performance and reliability. It is designed to be used with an arc welding process, which uses argon gas to create the weld joint. This weld joint can then be sealed by using a filler material such as steel or aluminum. The welding wire itself is made from a variety of different materials including copper, stainless steel, nickel and titanium alloys.

Submerged-Arc Welding Wire is a type of welding wire that has been specifically designed for use in SAW applications. It is a metal wire, typically made from copper or stainless steel, that is submerged in an electric arc to create the weld. This method of welding provides many advantages over traditional arc welding techniques, including higher strength and improved penetration depth. Additionally, it produces cleaner welds with fewer porosity defects than other methods.
