Inflatable Rubber Plugs: Lightweight but Strong and Highly Resistant to Petrochemicals

It has long been possible to seal sections of a pipe using an Inflatable Stopper. However there are applications where existing stoppers aren’t quite good enough for the job in hand. Now, thanks to the new Range of Inflatable Rubber Plugs from the Pipestoppers® Division at Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®, a whole new number of […]

Switch to MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes and eliminate radiotoxic thoria

Tungsten Electrodes are widely in use for TIG/GTAW Welding. Tungsten is a rare metallic element used for manufacturing the electrodes for striking and maintaining the arc in this process. Tungsten is chosen for producing the welding arc because of its hardness and high-temperature resistance to carry the welding current to the arc. Tungsten has the […]

Successful Titanium Welding with Flexible Welding Enclosures®

It is often necessary to weld titanium or nickel alloy parts in an oxygen free environment especially within the Aerospace and Additive Manufacturing Industries. In order to achieve oxide-free welds, 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® […]

PurgElite® for Zero Colour Tube and Pipe Welds

Welders can spend hours filling entire tubes and pipes with an expensive inert gas in order to achieve oxide free, zero colour stainless steel welds. After more than 40 years of innovation, design and manufacturing expertise in the field of tube and pipe weld purging, Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® has introduced PurgElite®, a range of […]

Huntingdon Fusion Showcase at The Welding Institute

Last week HFT® participated in a two-day event at the prestigious headquarters of The Welding Institute, Cambridge. We were delighted to attend the event at The Welding Institute, which focussed on Welding Technology: State of the art and future developments’. On Day One, the 70 or so delegates listened to presentations by TWI personnel underlining […]

Accurate Stainless and Titanium Weld Purging with the PurgEye® 200

Quality Weld Purging is essential when welding metals such as stainless steel, zirconium, nickel alloys and titanium. The area around the weld must be purged of oxygen to as low as 50 parts per million (ppm) before, during and after welding to ensure all joints are metallurgically sound and oxide-free. To remain at the forefront […]

Special QuickPurge ® Pipe Purging System

Our QuickPurge ® Tube, Pipe and Pipeline Weld Purging Systems help to reduce the volume required to be purged. Time is money and waiting for pipes to be purged ready for welding can take many hours, depending on the diameter of the pipe being welded and the method chosen for purging. We were recently tasked […]

Low Cost Nylon Weld Purge Plugs™

It is important when welding stainless steel and titanium tube and pipe joints to produce zero colour, oxide-free welds both on the inside and outside, although it is not always easy to weld purge stubs, elbows and tees. For welding nickel alloy, titanium and stainless steel tubes and pipes, including stubs, elbows and tees, Huntingdon […]

No Risk of Lost Welds with Weld Purge Film®

Low cost weld purging can prove complex, with many welders making savings by constructing their own foam or paper dams in order to reduce the purge volume, making weld purging times shorter. Such improvised purge dams have severe technical limitations that can lead to loss of welds when they leak or slip from position thus […]

Burry Port RFC's Latest Match Report

Lampeter 0 – 37 Burry Port RFC Burry Port RFC travelled to third placed Lampeter and came away with a six try win to send a clear message to promotion rivals as they consolidate second place in the highly competitive Division 3 West B. With Lampeter a serious contender for the title, it was a […]

Heavy-Duty Leak Testing, Sealing and Stopping with Pipestoppers®

Blocking pipes for heavy-duty leak testing, sealing and stopping is easy with Steel Plugs from Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®’s Pipestoppers® Division. HFT Pipestoppers® Steel Test Plugs can be used for low pressure testing and plugging pipes, pipelines and pipework fabrications and other orifices between 2 and 48” (50 to 1,200 mm) diameter. Ron Sewell, Chairman […]

Low Cost Weld Purge Monitor® for Stainless Steel Welding

Measuring the oxygen level before, during and after welding stainless steel is crucial to achieve oxide free, zero colour welds. During stainless steel welding, the oxygen content must be purged down to a level as low as 100 ppm. The low cost, hand held, battery operated PurgEye® 100, designed and developed by Huntingdon Fusion Techniques […]
