So Steve, you keep welding rods in the open not a heated rod box. 7018's? That's bad juju.

I worked in an ISO 9000 certified facility for many years. Yeah it was on the Texas Gulf Coast but I've never heard of a difference in requirements based on humidity. Might be, I just haven't heard of it. As for the flux I'm not a CWI but do know that under ISO requirements your welding procedures have to be tested and proved and once proved you can not vary from them. If there is an exception for silicon flux that would be new to me and would need to be part of the welding procedure specification and general storage requirements. Gad, I'm glad I'm retired, ISO requirements seem a total PITA sometimes but to do business internationally a company really needs to comply with the stuff.

Used to just keep them in an old frig along with glue and stuff, to keep stuff from freezing.
Don't need that now that the shop stays warm all winter.

Was not a certified welder, just a self taught(with some experienced teaching).
I did learn how to stick weld aluminum(with a pipe liner)---hint, it is very fast! |
