  • Matt Arnold shows us how he welds sanitary tubing! These tubes can be found in food processing plants, breweries, pharmaceutical plants and cosmetic plants! This is an autogenous welding process and uses no filler rod!

I tried it today and it worked excellent . thank you very very much for your video and help !! grtz from holland .

    About 34 years ago I worked for a company building milk tankers for AMPI. There's nothing quite like a USDA inspection. Every weld inside those tanks had to be finished completely smooth, where you couldn't even tell there was even a weld there. We used flapper wheels on the end of a drill to sand the inside welds down to tank level and then we'd polish them. The manhole in the top and the ports on the back had to be welded the same way. We also ran beads on every joint and seam on the outside too but we just used a MIG for those because they didn't have to be sanitary. It took about two weeks to finish one working with two men crews if I remember correctly and that includes insulation, skin. running gear and fifth wheel mounted and ready to roll down the road. I'm a rig welder too and I only took that job when the oil field collapsed in 1986 and it held me over until I could put my rig back to work.

      Food grade welding is so clean it is satisfying with the end result. I've seen 10's of thousands of feet of stainless food grade pipe work and the couple of dairy plants I used to work at. So clean.

    Super helpful as an engineer designing some of these sanitary tube applications to see what the weld process should look like and things to look out for to make the design easier to weld and a better end product. The video is a great resource when you can't go bug your welders in the shop for a demo!

    I use a #4 on a stubby gas lens with a 1/16" tungsten stick out. I also run 42 amps on 2". 5 cfh on purge and 25 cfh on a ck swivel head rig. Important to note that your purge can be ruined if the pipe is colder than the ambient air temp. Condensation will accumulate on the pipe i.d.
