Portable 10 ppm Weld Purge Monitor
With ever-improving standards in Quality Control, measuring the oxygen level around welds before, during and after welding reactive metals is crucial. The hand held PurgEye® 200 is a Weld Purging Monitor® specifically developed and designed for use when welding titanium, zirconium, high specifica ...Weld Purging: Replace Foam with Film for High Quality Welds
The use of home made sponge foam purge dams for pipe weld purging is still very familiar throughout the welding industry. However, operators are unaware as to how the use of sponge foam can adversely influence the metallurgical strength of a joint. When sponge foam starts to warm up from the heat ...Zero Colour Titanium Welds with the PurgEye® Desk
Titanium is the metal of choice in a variety of industries due to its excellent corrosion resistance to acids, chlorides and salt. Titanium has a wide continuous service temperature range, from liquid nitrogen (-322°F) to 1,100°F and the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any metal. Titanium is a ...No Draining the Pipe System with Pipe Freezing
Eliminating the need to drain long sections of pipe for repairs or modifications and reducing shut down time is now possible with Pipe Freezing Systems. The Pipestoppers® Division at Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® provides a cost saving solution with Qwik-Freezer™, the industry standard portabl ...New: Unique 10 ppm Colour Touch Screen Weld Purge Monitor®
It is essential to monitor the oxygen level when welding reactive metals. Metals that are classed as ‘reactive' (titanium, zirconium and nickel alloys) are sensitive to oxygen when heated. When welding these metals, the oxygen must be purged from the welding zone, down to as low as 10 parts per mil ...Heavy-duty Flow and Line Stopping with Steel Plugs
There are occasions where pipes need to be repaired whilst liquids are still flowing. Heavy-duty flow stopping and line plugging may require plugs and stoppers to have long immersion in chemicals or exposure to high temperatures, which many such items are not capable of withstanding. Providing th ...Improve Tungsten Electrode and Welding Arc Performance with the TEG-1000
Tungsten Electrode Grinders are essential with TIG/GTA welding. Using a Grinder that has been designed and manufactured specifically for tungsten metal is not only a much safer option, they provide more accurate results leading to as many as ten times greater number of arc strikes and giving very d ...Weld Purging Post Weld Heat Treated (PWHT) Pipework
Welding processes can weaken metals by imparting residual stresses into a material, leading to a reduction in corrosion resistance properties. Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) is regularly used to retain the strength of a metal when welding certain materials including high strength stainless steel a ...Weld Purging: Replace Paper, Foam and other unsuitable Materials with Argweld® Weld Purge Dams
Weld Purging is essential when welding tubes and pipes made of reactive metals such as stainless steels, titanium and zirconium. Usually weld zones are confined with purge dams so that the use of argon purge gas is limited and waiting times are reduced. Homemade dams fabricated from paper, sponge ...Oxidation Free Weld Beads with Weld Backing Tape™
Welders are often faced with challenges where high quality stainless steel, duplex and chrome steel welds are required, but where the use of purge gas is not always possible. One solution to this problem is the use of Argweld® Weld Backing Tape™ from Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®. This high te ...Fast, Reliable and Safe Stopping of Pipe Contents with Inflatable Rubber Plugs
Sealing, stopping and blocking pipes where oils, hydrocarbons and petrochemicals are present can cause major inconveniences with many normal stoppers not being able to handle such conditions. The Pipestoppers® Division at Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® manufactures a Range of Inflatable Rubber ...Pipe Freezing with Qwik-Freezer™
Repairs or modifications on pipes can pose challenges, especially where there is liquid present inside, which may result in the expense and danger of system down time and loss of revenue while the system is drained and refilled. To dramatically reduce these costs and speed up the repair or replace ...Welding Titanium with the Low Cost ‘Nano’
Metals that are classed as ‘reactive' (titanium, zirconium and nickel alloys) are sensitive to oxygen when heated. When welding these metals, the oxygen must be purged from the welding zone, down to as low as 10 parts per million (ppm). Weld Purging in this environment will avoid discolouration of ...Large Diameter Pipework Fabrications
Large diameter pipework can cause several challenges, especially when those pipes are manufactured from stainless, duplex and chrome steels, titanium or zirconium. When welding such reactive materials, they need to be purged of oxygen before, during and after welding. It is not cost effective to c ...Supplementary Gas Shielding with an Argweld® Weld Trailing Shield
Eliminating oxidation and discolouration when welding stainless and duplex steels as well as titanium, zirconium and nickel alloys is crucial in many industries today, because of improving quality control procedures. Welds have to be free from metallurgical defects otherwise they can potentially be ...
