Monitor Your Weld Purge at a Distance

When welding long pipelines, one problem operators often face is not receiving a fast and true weld purge reading from the weld zone. Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® make it possible to have an immediate reading of the weld purge gas from any distance up to 1,000 metres away with the PurgEye® 1000. This unique Weld […]

Effective Heavy-Duty Pipe Stopping

HFT® Pipestoppers® Aluminium Plugs have been designed for use in applications where pipes carrying fluids need to be plugged or sealed. They are available up to 36’’ (900mm) and can accommodate temperatures up to 250⁰C. These heavy-duty plugs are manufactured with a low-friction washer to ease tightening of the ring nut that expands a rubber […]

Oxygen Monitor for Welding

Inert gas welding requires the elimination of oxygen from the weld zone during the welding of reactive metals including stainless steel. Before the welding process begins, the oxygen level must be reduced to a required minimum, which is less than 100 ppm when welding stainless steel. The low cost, hand held, battery operated PurgEye® 100, […]

Low Cost Weld Purge Plugs for Tube and Pipe Weld Purging

Due to tight budgets, welders sometimes have to construct their own Weld Purging Equipment, often made from materials such as paper, card, sponge or foam. Homemade dams made from such materials can often lead to loss of welds when they leak or slip from position thus flooding the welding zone with oxygen. The Pipestoppers® Division […]

Inflatable Pipe Weld Purging Systems Drastically Restrict Weld Purge Volumes

Inflatable Pipe Weld Purging Systems are in use worldwide, restricting weld purge volumes, making huge savings in time and inert gas. Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® design and manufacture PurgElite®, a range of low cost Tube and Pipe Purging Systems to achieve a clean, oxide free, zero colour weld in just minutes, available from 1” (25 […]

Increase the life of your Tungsten Electrode with MultiStrike®

Thoriated tungsten electrodes are still widely used in GTAW/TIG welding despite the potential health hazards. Thoria is added primarily to stabilize the arc but it is radio-toxic and radio-toxic dust is generated during electrode grinding. To overcome the risk posed by harmful products Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®’s blue-tipped MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes contain a mix of […]

Hydrocarbon Resistant PetroChem® Stoppers

Pipe blocking and stopping pipes containing hydrocarbons such as petroleum products and natural gas can often pose challenges, with normal Pipestoppers unable to withstand such intense conditions. The Pipestoppers® Division of Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® manufacture a range of hydrocarbon resistant stoppers called PetroChem® Stoppers. Manufactured from a high-grade latex, the PetroChem® Stoppers offer a […]

Welding Enclosures for Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing

TWI (The Welding Institute) states that: “Wire arc additive manufacturing uses arc welding power sources and manipulators to build 3D shapes through arc deposition. This process commonly uses wire as a material source and follows a predetermined path to create the desired shape. This method of additive manufacture is usually performed using robotic welding equipment.” […]

Weld Purge Monitor for On-Site Conditions

Welding on site can pose difficult challenges, including exposure to extremes of heat and cold, harmful sand and dust and even hazardous fumes. Contamination during welding can lead to loss of corrosion resistance and a reduction in strength so control of oxygen levels is crucial. With another innovative development, Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® have designed […]

Low Cost Pipe Stopping for Tight Access

Pipe blocking, plugging and sealing for duties such as repair work, leak testing, weld purging and debris stopping is easy with Pipestoppers®. The Pipestoppers® Division at Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® design and manufacture a Range of Mechanical and Inflatable Pipestoppers® and Plugs to suit a variety of applications. The Low Profile Stopper is available for […]

QuickPurge® Your Large Diameter Pipes for Perfect Welds

Purging large diameter pipework ready for welding can be expensive. Without restricting the volume, there is a high cost involved in inert gas used and time spent waiting for the oxygen level to reach a level low enough for welding to begin. Weld Purging experts Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® have designed and developed QuickPurge® Systems […]

Secondary Inert Shielding Gas Application with Argweld Weld Trailing Shields®

A secondary inert shielding gas application is often required when welding reactive metals such as titanium alloys and stainless steels, to protect the weld from oxidation until it has cooled to a safe temperature. The low cost Argweld Weld Trailing Shield® provides additional inert gas coverage during welding and is available from Huntingdon Fusion Techniques […]
