Introducing PurgeNet™ and Accessories
Monitoring the oxygen level before, during and after welding is essential. Welding in an environment of less then 100 ppm for stainless steel and less than 20 ppm for titanium ensures that welds are free from oxidation. Allowing joints to oxidise when welding then involves mechanical or chemical ox ...Weld Purging for Closing Welds
Weld Purging a variety of pipes of different diameters can prove complex and costly, particularly when having to fill whole pipework systems with expensive argon gas. One solution that welders have traditionally devised has been to construct homemade foam or paper dams that are placed either side of ...Effective Pipe Plugging in Heavy-Duty Applications, with Aluminium Plugs
Effective plugging and sealing of pipes in heavy-duty applications is essential, especially in refineries, offshore operations, plumbing operations as well as domestic and industrial water activities where the plug is likely to be immersed in chemicals or exposed to high temperatures. The Pipestopp ...Accessories for Inflatable Weld Purging Systems
It is important when welding metals such as stainless steel, titanium and zirconium that the welding zone is purged of oxygen even as low as 10 parts per million (ppm) before, during and immediately after welding, in order to achieve a clean, oxide free, zero colour weld. Weld Purging Experts Hunti ...Leak Testing, Debris Stopping and Weld Purging with Pipestoppers®
Pipe plugs and stoppers are in use globally for a large variety of applications, including leak testing, weld purging, debris stopping and pipe freezing for repair or maintenance work for thousands of different industries. Manufacturing a wide range of plugs and stoppers of up to two meters in dia ...Improve Weld Root Profiles with Backing Tape®
During the welding of tanks, chambers and vessels, an uneven root profile can cause product entrapment that may contaminate a process as well as interrupting flow characteristics. Many weld joints require a controlled underbead profile of the first root pass. Where manual welding cannot control the ...Weld Purge Monitor® for the Nuclear Industry
With the growth of Nuclear Power activities around the World, there is a large volume of stainless steel pipework that will need to be welded to a high standard, with no oxidation that can lead to loss of corrosion resistance. To meet the higher standards of welding that the Nuclear Industry expe ...Flexible Welding Enclosure® for Welding Titanium and Nickel Alloy
When welding titanium or nickel alloy parts, it is important that the welding zone is purged of oxygen to a level as low as 10 parts per million (ppm). Flexible Welding Enclosures® are available for a fraction of the cost of a rigid welding chamber, providing a technically viable option to the ver ...On-Site Weld Purge Monitor® with PurgeNet™
Welders often face difficulties when working under the conditions experienced on-site. When welding critical joints on-site the challenges might come from exposure to extremes of heat and cold, harmful sand and dust and even hazardous fumes. Therefore using an expensive Weld Purge Monitor® in such c ...Low Cost 1 PPM Weld Purge Monitor® designed for the Process Industries
Due to the constant upward trends in Quality Control procedures, there is growing pressure on the Process Industries to carry out their welding in the absence of oxygen to an ever increasingly lower level. Metals such as stainless steel, titanium, zirconium and nickel alloys are now available to the ...Weld Purge your Heat Treated Pipes Confidently with HotPurge®
High strength steel joints must pre-heated prior to welding and also require a post-weld heat treatment. Weld joints of this nature are often purged of oxygen and welded in an inert atmosphere to reduce the risk of ‘sugaring', an imperfection that could allow metal pieces to break off inside pipewor ...
