Visit my store at weldmongerstore.com for TIG cup Kits, TIG Fingers, Gloves, Tungsten, Filler metal, and other quality welding tools. New products being added weekly.
This is a 2 inch schedule 80 6G test TIG all the way using ER70S6 filler wire
There are many techniques that work on this test but in this video, we used the freehand method as well as the laywire technique on the root pass.
My friend Andrew Cardin did the welding while I ran the camera.
hope this helps

I would have duffed my tungsten minimum 20 times trying to do this, but I have also never done 6g tig like this and have never needed to. time under the hood and practice is so important, and it's awesome you make informative videos like this for when someone like me might need to learn this, or at least attempt to learn it.

You hit the nail on the head about Boilermaker welding. Many times we are not able to walk the cup, and when we can, the guys that can do it relish the chance to not have burned fingers or knuckles. I can’t count how many 6G tests I’ve taken in my career, but surely a couple hundred. The worst ones are super coupon tests with GTAW all the way out with stainless or inconel.

I Fn hate the super coupons. Tig,stick, whatever.

Gotta do 2 super coupons tomorrow morning...I'm sweating 🥵.. one is inconel 2 inch tig. The other is 6 inch combo Tig stick

As a novice welder, you ABC rule has helped me immensely - Always Be Comfortable! (request for some more Pulsed Spray MIG videos)

@MrMonkforfunk 26 күн бұрын

I've been welding for over 10 yrs- i think about ABC all the time. Its nearly impossible to do a great weld if you are not at least somewhat comfortable. Its fun finding creative ways to get comfortable and lay down a weld.

Ah I’m piece rate tig welder for six years and on convection boxes and economisers and super heaters you short radius 180 returns welding with both hands is mandatory or you won’t make the cut and it’s the difference from making $1000 dollars a day or just be a hourly hand and never touch a return and be stuck welding for 25 an hour

I've welded pipe from 6 inch diameter all the way down to 1/4 inch pipe (1/32 thick), even took a 6G certificate in. I'd say the hardest size pipe is right around 1 inch, just big enough that you can't do one quarter of the pipe just moving your wrist.

Strange,on this side of the pond we almost never use scratch start! Here we use High Frequency with up and down slope and 99% never ever use a foot pedal. Is this not common in the USA ?

@joelbrown3479 4 ай бұрын

Every shop has their SET UP (foot pedal most common), and guys in the field usually don't.

@Granamire 4 ай бұрын

This is the money marker for Boilermakers! One difference is there's no tig hot pass on the common arc test. Tig root then stick the rest out.

When i was welding pipe. I was always told clip my wire when i stop. Because of contamination when you restart. True or not?

@weldingtipsandtricks 4 ай бұрын

clipping wire in between restarts is a good habit and never a bad idea. but if you keep the tip of wire shielded with argon for several seconds after stopping, clipping can often be skipped.

This is a serious question and I'm asking because I'm admittedly ignorant on the subject so no anger is warranted but why is it safe to watch a welding spark through a video with no eye protection? Is it just the UV doesn't translate through other mediums? Thanks in advance.

@weldingtipsandtricks 4 ай бұрын

It’s ok to watch on screen without eye protection

@seanmetcalf918 4 ай бұрын

@@weldingtipsandtricks I understand it's ok my actual question is why is it ok. I'm not insulting the video at all or your other work I'm legitimately asking how it becomes safe.

@tedsaylor6016 4 ай бұрын

@@seanmetcalf918 No matter what you watch on the computer screen, babies - welding - a nucular test, the light/radiation coming from the video screen is the same - minimal. In-person welding generates all kinds of radiation, using a great welding hood with bare elbows will leave you with nasty sunburn on those elbows if you do any more than a few minutes welding. That radiation is impossible for video to replicate.

@benz-share9058 4 ай бұрын

@@seanmetcalf918 If I understand your reasoning, I think you are correct. The camera lens and sensor may receive some UV light from the arc through built-in filters, but the display screen does not reproduce any of that for the eyes of the viewer or camera operator.

@benz-share9058 4 ай бұрын

True as a general rule, but unlikely to be an issue here. 100 amp arc doesn't put out a ton of UV (though there was quite a bit of arc time in this joint!) and the camera operators were a lot farther away than the hands of the welder. UV light exposure drops off rapidly with distance, explained by the "inverse square law." Example: If the welder's hands are two inches from the arc and the camera operator's hands are 12 inches away, the UV intensity is 1/36 (the factor of six in distance, squared) as much. Then again, good practice is always a thing to advocate, so point well taken. Lastly, your eyes focus light, so don't apply any of this to them-wear eye protection!
