WHAT IS S77» (SURFACE TENSION TRANSFER1')? STT® (Surface Tension Transfer®) is a controlled GMAW short circuit transfer process that uses current controls to adjust the heat independent of wire feed speed, resulting in superior arc performance, good penetration, low heat input control, and reduced spatter and fumes. For more information see Nextweld® Conventional CV short circuit transfer using C02 and STT® using C02 and .045 in. solid wire. .045 In. solid wire. Note reduced spatter and fume. A. STT® produces a uniform molten ball and maintains it until the "ball" shorts to the puddle. B....

Using STT® for Open Root welding Open root welding is used for pipe and single-sided plate welding in situations that preclude welding from both sides of the material. This type of welding is common in the petrochemical and process piping industries. Advantages of STT® Open Root Penetration Control - Provides reliable root pass and complete back bead. Ensures excellent sidewall fusion. Cost Reduction - Uses 100% C02, the lowest cost gas, when welding carbon steel. - Provides the capability of welding stainless steel, nickel alloys, and mild or high strength steels without compromising weld...
