In the E71T-1 code, which value indicates all-position welding?

In the E71T-1 code, which value indicates all-position welding?

• A. 1
• B. 0
• C. 2
• D. 3

Answer: (A)

In this electrode classification, the trailing digit shows which welding positions are permitted. For the E71T-1 flux-cored electrode, the digit 1 means the electrode is approved for all positions, so you can weld flat, horizontal, vertical, and overhead without changing filler metal. Values such as 2 or 3 indicate restricted position use (not all positions), and 0 isn’t the all-position designation. So the digit that indicates all-position welding is 1.
