A method of arc welding is disclosed in which a consumable electrode of predetermined composition and the same composition in granular or powdered form are fed separately to the weld area, so that variations in the amount of consumable electrode and granular or powdered composition are of no consequence, and the composition of the deposit will always remain constant. The necessity for careful control of the ratio of feed is thus eliminated, and, moreover, the pool of molten material under the arc is substantially cooler than that of the pool in other or conventional submerged arc welding methods, with the result that there is less dilution of the pool by the base or substrate.
