Fillet Weld on an Inside Corner or T-Joint

The electrode should be held at a 45° work angle. Aiming the wire more
toward the vertical surface may improve the bead shape. This helps
compensate for the molten metal sag. For the best penetration and weld
pool control, use a 5°–15° drag travel angle. On thin metals, use a 5°–15°
push travel angle.
 Groove Weld on a Butt Joint

When a butt weld is being made, the centerline of the welding wire
should be directly over the axis of the weld. A drag travel angle of
between 5°–15° is correct for the backhand welding method.
See Figure Adjusting the travel angle to near zero reduced the
penetration. A push travel angle, which is forehand welding, can be
used to further reduce or control the penetration on thin metals.
