What Characteristic of Some Fluxes Can Help to Push the Weld

Multiple Choice

What characteristic of some fluxes can help to push the weld penetration deeper?

A) The larger mass of some bigger electrode flux coverings add a great deal of weight to the slag covering that force the weld penetration deeper.
B) Some fluxes act as a thermal blanket holding the heat into the weld which lets the weld penetrate deeper.
C) The formation of a crucible at the end of the electrode acts as a combustion chamber.
D) The only way to get deeper weld penetration is to turn the welder's amperage to the maximum.
