Back Purging with Argweld® Weld Backing Tape®

Back Purging is the process of protecting and shielding the back side or under side of the weld during welding to prevent oxidation. Back Purging with fiberglass Weld Backing Tape® supports weld roots and can prevent oxidation, sugaring, achieving clean, oxide free welds. Luke Keane®, Technical Sales Manager for Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® said: “We […]

Distance Weld Purge Monitoring

GTA/TIG welding long pipelines made of stainless steel can be found in many different industries including Oil and Gas, Nuclear and LNG. The use of stainless steel can offer many advantages including corrosion resistant properties and cost-effectiveness of the alloy. With Stainless Steel being a reactive material, the oxygen in the protective gas must be […]

Save Time and Money with a High Quality Inflatable Purging System

When welding tubes and pipes made of alloys such as stainless, duplex and chrome, it is important to eliminate the oxygen internally with an inert gas. This will help prevent oxidation, discolouration and will ensure a good internal weld profile. Weld Purging long pipelines can be costly and time consuming, so restricting weld purge volumes […]

Weld Purging at a Low Cost

There are many occasions where Tandem Inflatable Tube and Pipe Purging Systems are not suitable and welders are often left to construct their own Weld Purging Equipment. Often, homemade purging devices are unsuitable and can often lead to loss of welds due to oxidation. Weld Purging Experts Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® manufacture a range of […]

Eliminate the Thoria and Maintain the High Performance with Blue-Tipped MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes

Thoria, found in thoriated Tungsten Electrodes is a radio-toxic compound and emits mainly alpha particles, which are harmful if released inside the digestive tract or inside the lungs where they act as a carcinogen. Thoriated Tungsten Electrodes therefore pose a risk to welders during grinding. Why are thoriated Tungsten Electrodes still in use today? Welders […]

Tungsten Electrode Grinder for perfectly ground Tungsten Electrodes

Tungsten Electrode Grinder: Correctly preparing each Tungsten Electrode for welding is crucial. It is one of the most important variables in TIG / GTA welding and each Tungsten Electrode must be ground properly to improve arc starting, stability and subsequently weld quality. Manufactured with a diamond wheel, the TEG-1000 Tungsten Electrode Grinder from Huntingdon Fusion […]

Welding Enclosures for Titanium Parts

Welding titanium alloys often has to be carried out in an environment where oxygen can be eliminated throughout the welding cycle. If the parts were to come into contact with oxygen ay any point, the reactive metal can become contaminated, oxidising which can lead to reductions in corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. Metal glove boxes, […]
