How it Works
Experts from the welding industry answer your questions and explain 'how it works'.
How it Works: Why Buttering on Dissimilar steels is often suggested?
Buttering is used to create a transition of composition and properties across the joint such that the resulting connection has properties suitable for the application.
How it Works: Underwater Welding 鈥� What is the first thing you need to know?
Underwater welds are commonly made by especially skilled diver-welders.聽 These people are divers first and welders second.
How It Works: How does porosity form in welds?
Porosity in welds results from only one thing 鈥� gas absorbed by the liquid metal in excess of what it can retain in solution when solidified. The classic example is nitrogen and oxygen from air absorbed by steel weld metal.聽 The steel weld pool easily absorbs large amounts of both gases which is rejected as the weld solidifies 鈥� forming bubbles.
