What is fusion?
The combination of heat and pressure to result in parts being joined
What are some ideal conditions for successful welding
smooth surfaces that match eachother
clean surface
identical microstructure of the materials being joined
good quality metals
What is a common example of gas welding?
Name some important details about the tanks in oxy-acetylene welding
acetylene canister has a maroon cap
oxygen supply has a white cap
pressure regulators located at the start of the tube
blue hose for oxygen
red hose for acetylene
Flashback arrestor
What does oxy-acetylene welding use?
Filler rod in combination with an open flame
How is acetylene compressed inside of the tank?
The tanked is packed with a pourous material and filled with acetone. The acetylene is then dissolved into the acetone, and can hold 25 times more acetylene.
What is a neutral flame used for?
most welding
What is an oxidising flame used for?
welding brass to prevent fuming
What is a carburising flame used for?
special welding in which you do NOT want oxidisation.
What does MMA (manual metal arc) welding use?
A flux coated consumeable electrode, with a basic welding circuit
What are the benefits of slag
protects the weld from oxidisation
slows down the rate at which the weld cools
