Global Arc Welding Rods Market Research Report 2025(Status and Outlook)
Description
Report Overview
Arc welding rods, also known as welding electrodes, are consumable filler materials used in arc welding processes to join metals by generating an electric arc between the rod and the workpiece. These rods consist of a metal core wire coated with flux, which stabilizes the arc, shields the molten metal from atmospheric contamination, and forms a slag layer to protect the weld as it cools. They are available in various types, such as rutile, basic, and cellulose electrodes, each suited for specific applications, materials (e.g., mild steel, stainless steel, cast iron), and welding conditions. The performance of welding rods depends on factors like composition, diameter, and coating type, making them critical for achieving strong, durable welds in industries like construction, automotive, shipbuilding, and manufacturing.
The global Arc Welding Rods market size was estimated at USD 550.61 million in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.50% during the forecast period.
