Which of the following welding method uses a pool of molten metal?

A. Carbon arc welding

B. Submerged arc welding

C. TIG arc welding

D. MIG arc welding

Answer: Option B

Solution (By Examveda Team)

This is a well established and extremely versatile method of welding. Submerged-arc welding (SAW) involves the formation of an arc between a continuously fed electrode and the work piece.
A blanket of powdered flux, which generates a protective gas shield and a slag (and may also be used to add alloying elements to the weld pool), protects the weld zone. A shielding gas is not required.

    - For pull off molten metal it is electroslag welding and,
    - For pool of flux it is submerged arc welding
