In shielded arc welding

A Large electrode is used
B Welding rod coated with slag is used
C Welding rod coated with fluxing material is used
D None of the above

Correct Answer: Welding rod coated with fluxing material is used

Shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), also known as manual metal arc welding (MMA or MMAW), flux shielded arc welding or informally as stick welding, is a manual arc welding process that uses a consumable electrode covered with a flux to lay the weld.
