TIG (GTAW) welders need certainty with their welding equipment

One key to a good TIG weld is the electrode. At this time, welders are going through a period of uncertainty as far as the information and circumstances arising with respect to their electrodes. Until now, the best scientifically confirmed electrode was made with Tungsten, with a small addition of a material called thorium oxide, […]

Faster pipe purging with QuickPurge®

When stainless steel, duplex steels or titanium pipes need to be welded in the process industries, they generally have to be purged of air and water vapour, in order to obtain the quality of weld demanded by such industries. Even today, more than 40 years after high quality pipe weld systems were developed, welders are […]

Handy Oxygen Measuring Instruments for Welders

Welders need to measure oxygen near the weld when they are joining metals like titanium, stainless, chrome and duplex steels. A fast and reliable way to do this, is to use a hand held monitor near the joint to ‘sniff’ samples of the gas and to check the amount of oxygen present. Ordinary oxygen monitors […]

New Tungsten Electrode Grinder

Ensuring your Tungsten Electrode is sharpened correctly can help to improve weld quality. Tungsten Electrode Grinders are a convenient, safer and more accurate way than other methods of grinding Tungsten Electrodes. Back by popular demand, Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® have re-initiated the manufacturing of the TEG-2 Tungsten Electrode Grinder, which was retired from their product […]

Flexible Welding Enclosures® for Additive Manufacturing

When welding titanium and any other reactive metal for additive manufacturing, it is important that the welding zone is purged of oxygen and nitrogen to a level as low as 10 parts per million (ppm) of O2 or less. After more than 40 years of experience in the field of manufacturing Flexible Welding Enclosures®, Huntingdon […]

Power Piping Perfectly Purged

Special new high temperature materials allow production problems to be solved. Thanks to the high temperature resistance of glass coated cloth, it is now possible to manufacture Weld Purging Systems to resist temperatures up to 760ºC. This is particularly valuable for welding pipework suitable for power stations and other utilities that produce high pressure steam […]

Low Cost 1 PPM Weld Purge Monitor®

For many years, oxygen monitors and gas analysers have been used for weld purging. These instruments have been designed and calibrated for accuracy at atmospheric oxygen level, but not for weld purging where accuracy is required when reading much lower oxygen levels. With their scientific background, Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® have designed and manufactured the […]

Double Freezing technique for large diameter Valve replacement

Replacing valves in a pipeline can be a challenge, especially when the pipelines have liquids running through them. One option is to completely drain the system to make the repairs, which can prove costly with respect to loss of expensive fluid, heating or cooling costs, security matters, time that system is down plus labour costs. […]

Burry Port RFC Through to Round 3

Burry Port travelled to local rivals New Dock Stars and booked their place into the next round of the WRU Bowl and look forward to the draw on Wednesday to see who they will play in Round 3. It was the Home side who got off to the better start keeping the ball for long […]

Inflatable Stoppers for Petrochemical Applications

Blocking pipes or other orifices to carry out routine maintenance and other applications can prove challenging where hydrocarbons are present in liquid and gas form. Now, a range of hydrocarbon resistant Inflatable Pipestoppers is available for the Petrochemical and Oil and Gas Industries. Manufactured in cylindrical and spherical formats from 1 – 44” (25 – […]

Highest Quality Welds made with Lower Costs

Welding stainless steel, titanium, zirconium, niobium and other metals sensitive to atmospheric gases, requires oxygen levels to be as low as 10 ppm and in some cases, knowledge of dew point level in the shielding and purging gas. Many welds of this nature are still welded with archaic or home-made items to try to shield […]

Handy Purge Monitor, now with PurgeNet™

To remain at the forefront of Weld Purging technology, World leading Weld Purging Experts and inventors of the Weld Purge Monitor®, Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® have launched the updated hand-held PurgEye® 200 Weld Purge Monitor®, now with PurgeNet™. When welding metals such as stainless steel and titanium, it is essential to measure the oxygen level […]
