<strong>EGW</strong><br />
<strong>EGW</strong> power supplies are usually capable <strong>of</strong><br />
750 amps at 100% duty cycle.<br />
Retaining shoes (dams) are typically watercooled<br />
copper. However, steel backing strips,<br />
ceramic backups and combinations are<br />
sometimes used.<br />
<strong>EGW</strong> flux-core electrodes are not the same as<br />
FCAW (less slagging). Solid wires are<br />
typically the same as GMAW (except bigger).
