Welding Practice Test

Take this free welding practice exam to get a sample of the types of questions on an actual welding exam.

Subject matter covered in actual AWS and other welding examinations include:  Shielded Metal Arc Welding, Flux Cored Arc Welding, Self Shielded and Submerged Arc Welding, the arc welding processes protected by flux, along with the gas shielded processes, such as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding, Gas Metal Arc Welding and Flux Cored Arc Welding-Gas Shielded. Brazing and soldering are also covered, along with common mechanical and thermal cutting processes that will aid in material preparation and enhance welding fit-up issues.

To prepare for your welding test, see the Welding Practice Exam Kit with 360 Questions with fully explained answers.

 

1. What is the major function of the coating on an arc welding electrode?
2. Square wave refers to the ____________.
3. Shielding gases are used to protect the molten metal from _______.
4. Weld backing is used with a process that uses a separate flux and electrode to _______ .
5. _________ is the weight of a volume of material compared with an equal volume of water.
6. A medium carbon steel has a carbon content of what percentage range?
7. If a liquid weld pool is at a very high level of energy, at what approximate temperature will the steel begin to solidify?
8. __________ is a groove melted into the base metal next to the weld toe or weld root and has not been filled in.
9. If the weld does not combine with another weld or the base metal it is referred to as:
10. To determine if a welder is qualified, the welder must pass a ________________ test.
