What is MMAW?

MMAW stands for Manual Metal Arc Welding, also known as Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) or stick welding. It is a manual arc welding process that uses a consumable electrode covered in flux to lay the weld. An electric current, in the form of an arc, is created between the electrode and the materials being joined. The flux coating of the electrode decomposes during welding, shielding the weld area from atmospheric contamination and providing slag, which protects the weld as it solidifies. It is commonly used in construction, fabrication, and repair work due to its portability and versatility.
