Easy Stainless Steel Welding

Weld Purge Monitors® are in use throughout the Welding Industry. Used during the welding of reactive alloys, they ensure the oxygen present is at a low enough level to avoid oxidation, which can lead to a loss of the alloys’ corrosion resistance properties. For stainless steel, the oxygen level needs to be as low as […]

Portable Pipe Freezing System

It is often very challenging to carry out repair work on pipes containing liquids. One option to carry out this maintenance is to completely drain the system, which can prove costly. Pipe Freezing Experts Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® has introduced the Qwik-Freezer™ Systems to their Pipestoppers® Division. These systems use CO2 to create ice plugs […]

Pipe Purging at a low cost with Weld Purge Film®

Titanium, stainless steel and other corrosion resistant materials are widely used for pipework. It is therefore necessary to ensure that a reduction in corrosion resistance does not occur during welding when elements are lost due to oxidation. The joint can be protected against oxidation using a technique called Weld Purging.  Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® have […]

Diamond Wheel Tungsten Grinder

Diamond Wheel Tungsten Electrode Grinders are recommended for all tungsten electrode grinding. Tungsten is a very hard material and with the diamond wheel being a harder material it makes for a smooth grind. The Tungsten Electrode is one of the most important variables involved in TIG welding. Preparing your Tungsten Electrode correctly will help to […]

Welding Cr/Mo/V Steel Pipe Joints

Chromium/molybdenum/vanadium steels need to be pre-heated prior to welding and also require a post-weld heat-treatment in order to preserve the mechanical properties. These materials can also suffer from loss of elements through oxidation, thus changing alloy balance and affecting mechanical properties. Protection can be provided through the use of specially developed weld purge systems. Huntingdon […]
