Disruption Free Pipe Repairs with Pipe Freezing

Many companies may have pipework systems such as sprinkler systems for example, that are full of water or other fluid that need to be completely drained for the smallest of repair. Companies facing system downtime can drastically reduce pipe and valve repair and maintenance costs with Accu-Freeze™ available from the Pipestoppers® Division of Huntingdon Fusion […]

Pipe Plugs for Heavy-Duty Applications

PlugFast Pipe Plugs : Most drain test plugs expand from the centre, however, above a certain size, the consistency of pipe roundness starts to be lost. For such applications, PlugFast™ Pipe Plugs offer a great reliability as they can be tightened at the edges in such a way that the seal is made, even with […]

Low Cost Weld Purge Monitoring down to 10 ppm

For many years, oxygen monitors and gas analysers have been used for weld purging. They are specifically designed and calibrated for accuracy at atmospheric oxygen level but not for weld purging where accuracy is required when reading much lower oxygen levels. Using the latest scientific knowledge and innovation, Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® have designed and […]

Large Diameter Pipe Purging

Care is necessary when welding large diameter pipework in stainless, duplex, chrome steels, nickel alloys and zirconium. When welding such reactive materials, they need to be purged of oxygen before, during and after welding, which can cause a huge expense when they are of a large diameter. Weld Purging Experts Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®’s innovative […]

Weldability of Grade 9 Titanium Alloy

The increasing popularity of Grade 9 titanium alloy has brought with it some questions about weldability. Grade 9 titanium alloy contains 3% aluminium and 2.5% vanadium, less alloying material than the more common Grade 5 (6% aluminium and 4% vanadium). Grade 9, alternatively referred to as Ti-3-2.5, offers improved resistance to corrosion and better mechanical […]

Out with the OLD and in the NEW

Argweld Weld Trailing Shields® are NEW and IMPROVED. The biggest feature about the new model is the unique torch attachment, which not only can be used by left or right handed welders, but means the welder can change different shield sizes without having to change the welding torch. Life made easier for welders, left or […]

Improved Performance when using MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes

Tungsten Electrodes are used during Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) or Plasma welding and are the most important consumable during welding. However they are often manufactured using thoria, dust from which poses a risk to health. Recognising both the performance requirement and the health benefits, Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®’s MultiStrike® Tungsten Electrodes not only deliver an […]

Weld Purge Plugs for Low Cost Tube and Pipe Purging

For welding nickel alloy, titanium and stainless steel tubes and pipes, including stubs, elbows and tees, Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® have designed and developed clinically clean, white nylon Weld Purge Plugs™, providing a great barrier for weld purging. Luke Keane, Technical Sales Manager for HFT® said: “When other purge systems cannot be used, Weld Purge […]

Stainless Steels and their Corrosion Resistant Properties

Stainless steels are often the choice of alloy because of their corrosion resistance and strength. They are some of the most durable of metals. Many industries, including the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, petrochemical and nuclear sectors rely on their corrosion resistance since even minimal product contamination of the product is unacceptable.    How to avoid […]
