Horizontal TIG Welding Root Pass Technique !
Рет қаралды 188,398
Жыл бұрынHorizontal tig welding root pass on carbon pipe. TIG root pass, using dip and constant feed wire technique for root and hot pass. In this video, I will show you how to place a good solid root pass on a horizontal joint. The horizontal weld can be very tricky especially when you just starting off. Here are some tips! Hope this helps!

None of these videos are recorded in a fancy shop surrounded by sponsorship banners!
My videos are recorded at working sites in various locations and welding positions.
90% of my welding projects in videos are x-rayed, and if you like to see hands-on projects, welcome!

Hello, have a good weekend, thanks for another video! I am in Finland now, we fabricate hockey rink freezing systems. Mostly all piping is stainless 2mm thick, no xray or whatsoever. We mainly use stainflux paste to protect root instead of argon purge. Weld puddle behaves better than without purge but still not so good

I am not being nit picky I am just sharing all the knowledge I know about welding. The gap there is much larger than 1/8, when using a stick electrode as a spacer make sure to break off the Flux. Measurements on stuck electrodes only refer to the green rod (the musch smaller metal rod inside the flux.) I would also recommend moving a little bit faster or lowering your amps to 95, because the back side is cooked. Your cup walking technique for the root is very good though. My personal preference is that I would not lay wire a root you wanna see the arc melt away the edges to ensure 100% penitration.

In tigging i would tack of coupons then tack filler rod to tack and tap the rod into gap. Between the two tacks i would tap the filler in to the gap and turn up the heat and go over the filler rod. The inside weld would look like a wedding band. Perfect stringer. No under cuts or over penetraction. I found this way it allowed me to turn and burn faster and more effective than working harder putting in the stringer. With the hot pass next, i could turn heat up higher and push my root further in. Man, do o miss those days. I miss the money too. Those were the days my friend.

Da moja greska ja sam pogresno razumio, učinilo mi se da si rekao 150 a ne 115. Upravu si sto se tiče struje, ja obično na ovako debljim materijalima koristim od 125 do 140 u zavisnosti sa kakvim aparatom radim. Radio sam i sa milerom ali ne bih fronius menjao ni za jedan mada to je samo stvar navike i neki moj lični stav. Zelim ti puno sreće i uspjeha.

How long since you failed an X-ray? doing my first tests in a couple days, hoping i'll be a welder in near future. Favourite channel on youtube right now.
@X3MTIG Жыл бұрын
Thanks bud I appreciate that! The last time I failed X-ray was 2015 doing flux core on 24 inch pipe, in rollout! Machine malfunction caused porosity on the hot pass, it was impossible to see it with naked eye . Since then I always double check my equipment before starting to weld. For flux core only, tho! 😉👍

Have you tried the laywire? 1/8 gap 1/8 filler and crank the shit out of the heat and you just push the rod to get penetration. I can’t ever seem to get it right

Hey bud, of course I did, and that’s what I’m usually doing, but I don’t make videos for show off , now since you mentioned that I might do one 😁👍

@@X3MTIG always so humble 😂if you could break down your process for that, and maybe possibly perhaps an in depth video about keyholing carbon in 5g on the top. I got hit with a closed gap and keyholed and dip with a 3 wire and the root was flush. I don’t keyhole my stainless but I know it’s gonna bite me in the ass when I get on higher alloys. Anywho, great video again man

On your first root tack, how do you stop the pipe pulling in to offset the standing angle of the top part of the pipe? I put my tacks in and I end up pulling my pipe so I remove the first tack and punch a wedge in to open it back up.
