Good job and well done, but there is a mistake. I put a weld over another weld, and this is a mistake. You have a nice touch in welding💙💙🇩🇿

Good day, whats the name or brand model for your tig torch??

You can use laser welding for more efficiency

Thanks dude

what i also like is that you keep argon-sheelding when you terminate your welds. Since i also do maintainence welding - guess where a seem will leak if it has not been sheelded properly. Nicelly done, good seems with proper roots.

A lot of places honestly don’t give a shit. Steel mills, paper plants are some examples. Refineries, nukes, and more serious places where there is QC they care.

Use a gas lense, and the appropriate gas flow for the size ceramic you're using and its absolutely fine👌👍

Your local welding supply store might sell them, and if they don't, they should be able to forward you to a supplier.

Running the Fronius pulse mig sets, thats gotta 3 phase Be very suprised if not

Naa just a button on and off

I think its a esab air cooled, wp26

If you're a welder then pipe welding is where u want to be

Ill give that a try thanks

Want to steer clear of paste if you can, unless there is literally no other option. Its horrible messy stuff, gives off some rotten fumes too, and all needs cleaning out when finished. Its simply a mega PITA

this is a single pass job, as far as i can see he didn't do any cap pass

@@raulduke85 you're probably right. I only gave it a quick watch. Doesn't really matter his root is good. All that really matters

@@liamjenkins82 well yes but the discoloration outside is a bit too much imo; it's good for most applications, but if u love welding you aim to the top tbh

@@raulduke85 yeah I agree completely. Pretty sure he was bringing in impurities with every dab. Filler taken outside of the argon zone. Didn't clean the weld area before hand. We all strive to do better that's for sure

Tig on stainless steel

In the uk

you would see the oxides in the cap if that was so.. there clearly isnt! seems like your just pulling shit out of your ass

Stainless is your friend, mofoka cleans itself

That machine doesn't have pulse and they dont want a flat weld so i need filler wire to build it ip

Depends on the procedure he's working to aswell. Be very hard pushed to find a procedure for welding pipework with pulse tig. Have been doing the job almost 20years now and haven't seen one procedure with pulse, other than pulse mig😕

NO its easy to make a procedure for tig also. You call Force and tell them that you want to make your own procedure and the you can make the procedure as you want….

Lol

We use 1.6mm rods for root pass, a 3-4mm gap (on 6" pipe and above) and root at around 85-90 amps. (AWS and EN1090 class4 approved procedure, along with Nuclear approved procedures.) Most often use a size 6 ceramic with about 8mm or so of stickout. 2.4mm grey tip ceriated tungsten. Sharpened with a taper about 6mm long then the very tip flattened off. Then up to a size 8 ceramic with about 10mm stickout, 2.4mm filler and 150-160amps for hotpass. Fill passes between 150 and 180 and usually i go back down to 150 to cap off. When welding 8" and above especially sched40 and heavier, fill passes are at 200amps still with a 2.4mm filler. So are we going about it wrong then? Before you answer btw, every single stainless job we do is subjected to a minimum of 10% radiography or DPI for slip on flanges and olets or other fillets, with around half of the jobs being 100%. Also quite often although not always, welds are also PMI checked especially on the nuclear side, to check the material composition of the finished weld. Personally have only had 2 repairs on stainless in the last year, one in the workshop and one out on site at a chemical plant. Also Talking about purging gases, Nitrogen doesnt "burn" and is the preferred gas for purging super duplex grades such as xeron 100.
