    Based on the vid title, I thought you were going to fix the bad welds, not show how to avoid making those mistakes. But I guess what other commenters said is probably true: grind it out and re-do it.

    @erisi6204 4 роки тому +1

    When measuring for underrfil do you have to take into account any contour on the plate; in this example the coupon wasn't totally flat so the underfil may change depending on which side of the plate you measure the weldment from?

  • @paulkurilecz4209
    @paulkurilecz4209 Рік тому

    10 inches per minute sounds like a very fast welding speed. In my industry (pipelines) we usually weld in the the 4 to 8 inch per minute range.

  • @tsatybel6554
    @tsatybel6554 2 роки тому

    The defects here are excessive covexity and a huge crater at the end, NOT unequal leg. The whole weld profile on face A is one leg, should had welded the other side of the arrow to compare the legs difference. A single leg can't be unequal to itself. The code talks about "Excessive Covex or Concave whatever the case" or excessive reinforcement in case of Butt weld.

    I'm make stainless steel exhausts, (tig welding) argon is quite costly where I am, an old retired cryogenic truck engineer told me that I can purge my pipes with any inert gas like nitrogen while using argon only for the the welding surface, I've not seen or heard of anyone else do this so im wondering if it can be true? All advice is welcome

    • @sopalen
      @sopalen 4 роки тому +2

      It is, inert just means it is a passive gas. supposed to active gas used in aluminum. MIG/MAG any one? a=active i=inert.
      Why don't you just try and find out for your self? that's the way to go, good luck.
      Do not ask questions, just try, thrust me i have welded a lot of stupid/weird stuff, and no one could tell you how to di it, just TRY and try again and again and again.
      I mean you are not welding the pipes of a hospital just try and learn.

    • @trevor4081
      @trevor4081 4 роки тому +2

      Theres a couple of ways. Generally we just cut them on the ends where they're not really fused then grind the rest down. Or you can cut the whole thing off but leave a little on the back and sand that down. Probably 1000 different ways to do it though

    I know I've asked this question before but when welding with flex core I've been told that the thickness dictates the stick out. I'm building a car trailer from 4in C channel 3/16 wall thickness and 2.5 angle same thickness and my stick out distance is about 3/8 is that a good to weld it.

    What is the difference between 1g, 2g, 3g etc?

    • @CommieCat
      @CommieCat 4 роки тому +1

      BillyG the G stands for grove, there’s also F for fillet. The number is the position going from easiest to hardest. So 1 is flat, 2 is horizontal, 3 is vertical up, 4 is overhead. That is with plates and you do those positions for any type of joint like butt joints etc.
      Pipe has its own positions too. 1G pipe is on a rollout wheel so you just spin and weld where you’re comfortable. 2G is vertical and you move around the pipe. 5G is a fixed position 1G so you have to bend and weld overhead at the bottom. 6G is a 5G test but fixed at a 45 degree angle so it makes it a lot hard because you’re never straight the whole time.

    • @trevor4081
      @trevor4081 4 роки тому

      24.5 and 255 are my vertical and overhead settings actually. Generally I run 28.0 and 380 but I'm welding old water intake gates that are all rusted out and have sediment deposits and water in them so we run real hot. If I hot better steel on the inside in some boxes then I'll go down to 26.5 and 330. When we fill CJP's I like to run hot too until the cover pass. Just me though. And this is with dual shielded .045
