Where each value comes from
The values above are stated away from the sentence quoted with the answer, so the passage it comes from is shown here too.
ESAB-recommended SAW (submerged arc) filler and ESAB-recommended FCAW (gas-shielded flux-cored) filler
The source prints these values inside the passage below but does not name them there. The passage shows where each one appears; what ties them to this record is the position on the page, not anything the passage says.
