Welding Titanium

Welding Titanium: Tips for Success

Welding Titanium: Techniques for success! Welding Titanium: Titanium is a reactive metal. When it is heated during welding it will react with oxygen that surrounds it, forming oxidised welds, which will lead to loss of corrosion resistance properties. In many industries today, this is no longer acceptable. Oxidised welds will be rejected, causing unnecessary rework. […]
