[QUOTE="leo williams, post: 1771892, member: 111903"] Shep, It adjusts the grain in the steel while you are welding. As you know, there are three areas when you weld. The welding rod is one, the parent metal is two & the heat zone next to the weld is three. Normally the welding rod area is the strongest because you can select whatever rod you wish. The parent metal is next in strength & the heat zone is by far the weakest and likely where a failure will occur. With harmonic stress relief, the welding rod area is still the strongest, the heat zone is next in strength, surpassing the parent metal, and the parent metal in now the weak link. [/QUOTE]
