Stick Stainless, dude! Trying to control that puddle is probably the single hardest thing I know of in welding, the only way I can describe it is like melting crayons into the Sun.
wanting to learn to weld for years, now finally got a weldigmachine as a gift, an italian Deca stickwelder...not sure if this is the easiest way to start learning, but it's a beginning :-) If this would be the result after decent amount of practise, i'd be very very happy! nice job, thanks for sharing!
Nice job. I often stock weld stainless whenever the conditions are right. In a maintenance and repair situation it beats GTAW. Esab makes some of the best electrodes I have ever used for SS. The SS fcaw can be a pretty useful process too.
2mm seinämää kun treenannut 2mm ilmaraolla niin 2mm elgan puikolla tuntuu että vaatii virtaa niin paljon palaakseen hyvin että ollaan reiän palamisen lähellä kokoajan.kokeilin esabin 1.6mm 63.20 puikkoa ja oli kuin lasten leikkiä verrattuna elgan 2mm.paloi paljon tasaisemmin pienillä virroilla.elgan puikot taisivat olla myös kosteita 2h vaan kuivaimessa.
i also tried 2mm pipe but i had problems. not enough current = no good penetration and no slag on the inside (bad for stainless) and too much current = have to move fast zigzag motion to prevent burning holes + only few centimeters welding possible because of heat building up too fast.
How much pressure do you think it would hold? And how does the xrays look on it? Thats preety easy to do it all in one pass root hot pass fill and cap. I figured alot of trash would be in it slag porosity pin holes ect... I wouldn't be comfortable doing it one pass but if you do it and its up to code you can bump production up
I can`t remember it and I don´t care about it. It is what it is. When you do this for years you can see how the puddle runs and now how to control it, I cannot tell it better
Esab 63.20-316L I started from 10 amps and then rise it up, dont know really what amps I had when I welded it, probably somewhere around 25 to 35 amps, then turn it down to 10 amps again when I stopped welding. 7018 and 7014 are made for black steel.
I’ve been welding stainless handrail for a few weeks now with 3/32 316L at about 75 amps, gotta say it is a pain in the ass! Hard to see the puddle with all the slag that it produces. Any tips??
i would like to know if its possible to not burn the stainless while stick welding. I fill my pipe with tig and have no discoloration. Then I cap with stick and it blackens like your pipe as well. Is it possible to keep that from happening?
At 2:49. U can seen that this is not 2mm.. Even ends of the tubes may have burr. Looks like 2.9mm. But anyway.. It is hardest job to stickwelder to master 2mm stainless.. Not if only reguiments are that u can make it leakproof.. but when u have to weld it in EN ISO 5817 class B. And its easiest in test. But in field its different u may not have space to go around with right hand.. may need left hand.. u may be standin on ladder when welding or might need mirror.. or maybe 4mm gap.. 2mm stainless in stickwelding is what separates best from good..
Any recommendations for someone looking into buying a stick welder for stainless and aluminum repairs for small jobs? Not sure what Arc welder to purchase for occasional use?
А с какой толщины стенки свариваешь V разделкой кромок?К стати видео очень класное.Очень понравилось.Работал с ОК 61.30 почему стык синеет.Труба нержавеющая 12х18н10т 4мм стенка.Сваривал в два прохода.Заранее спасибо.
If I use a remote control .I never know and don't care how many amps I use. It seems I use alot of amps, one time a kempi machine had blisters on the trafo from overheating.i miss the smell though inox fumes are hazardous.good work.
+Attis k I won't bother explaining the physics of electricity to you over the web, but it is simple enough to note that the shielding properties of your rod's flux do not extend out past the immediate area around the puddle(that's why they create slag to prevent oxidation), so this is just a fancy way to waste time and materials...
+Knolltop Farms Why I do this at the end of the weld, is becouse I don´t want to have a pinhole at the end of the weld, shielding properties of the flux wont do this for me. It is not a waste of time and materials, if you just pull the rod out of the weld, it will create a pinhole at the end of the weld. You can try this yourself if you want.
You should know that I was a certified high-pressure pipe and boiler welder for over 20 years, and I wouldn't be making any of my statements unless I know what I am talking about. Just because I'm a machinist now doesn't mean that is my only metallurgical expertise. However, I have no reason to try this just to argue with you, so if it passes your inspection then that's great! Have a pleasant Summer, please be safe in your work, take good care of yourself and your family. Peace and Aloha...the Farmer
If I can decide I stick weld it, becouse I dont have to worrie about gasses and so on. But when I am working I have to do as the code tells me. Most of the time I am stick welding stainless, it also depents what kind of a factory I am working, papermills usually want us to use stick and heat plants and oil factories want tig welding.
Helepon näköstä kun se osaa! Kerros vähän ''niksejä'' kuin tuo 2mm seinämä rosteri putki hitsataan 45asteen kulumasa. hankaluuksia alhaalta lähtiessä kello 9 ja 3 asentoon. Pitääkö puikko pitää sulassa kiinni ja välillä nostaa että tulee valokaarta vai? Ja mulla lähtee kuona välillä sulan eteen menemään, mistä tämä johtuu ? Paljonko sulla on ilmarako? ja onnistuuko yhtä helposti elgan 316LP -puikolla?
+Attis k is that 3/32 rod and what amperage are you running at I'm going to be doing schedule 40 can you help me out on my amperage setting and I assume you're in a reverse polarity
i would like to stick weld on 3" 0.065" stainless tube (1.651mm) i am getting forney 3/32"(2.38mm) stainless rod and forney 190MP(run on both 110v/220v) would that work ? or should i try to find smaller rod? what size is that esab ok 63.20 rod? 2mm?
redhongkong This is to mm stainless pipe and I used 2mm electrodes, I suggest you get a 1.6mm electrode, it makes it a lot easier to weld. 3/32 is very hard to use for so thin material.
***** i am having trouble finding that1.6mm electrode, if i find 2mm electrode would that work on 1.651mm tube? btw i can find 0.035"(0.88mm) flux cored stainless MIG wire, would u suggest me try MIG welding on it if i cant find smaller rods?
***** ok i finally found 1.6mm rods, its in 1.6kg package cost me $101.83CAD. but its Esab OK 61.30 E308L-17, would it do the job for me? and also what amp would be good to weld 1.6mm?
+scott carr Not necessarily-, mig is really good for thin metal, but you got to turn down the temp, being a structural welder myself, when you got to use a smaller electrode, you just got to turn down the amps enough to where you make good welds and tie-ins but not burn through the material, its not hard, its common sense.
Its nice to see a skilled stickwelder! Exray quallity has nothing to do with welding proces, only the skill of the welder. This Guy is probably from Finland, the welding people!:)
Stick Stainless, dude! Trying to control that puddle is probably the single hardest thing I know of in welding, the only way I can describe it is like melting crayons into the Sun.
Hahahaha you're not wrong
Guys. This is a person how knows welding! Its nice to see a stainless pipe welded with stick.
It's filled, it holds, looks good to me.
Esab 63.20 elecrtodes 2 mm thick and amps are somewhere around 25-30 maybe.
wanting to learn to weld for years, now finally got a weldigmachine as a gift, an italian Deca stickwelder...not sure if this is the easiest way to start learning, but it's a beginning :-)
If this would be the result after decent amount of practise, i'd be very very happy!
nice job, thanks for sharing!
Another fantastic video, Thank you!
Well thanks to you.
If I could get it 75 % of that I would die of shock I'd be so happy
Nice job. I often stock weld stainless whenever the conditions are right. In a maintenance and repair situation it beats GTAW. Esab makes some of the best electrodes I have ever used for SS. The SS fcaw can be a pretty useful process too.
Nice work, definitely harder than it looks.
Nice job...and a nice video. Thanks
bout as good as it's gonna get vertical up with stainless rod . this type of welding is very unforgiving
I would be extremely satisfied with that!
me too because he doesnt make big holes.
good an thank you
Thanks for your video..Good job !!!
Thanks for watching.
Looks good. I'd like to give stainless welding a try with my powerarc.
pretty nice.. i tried it but i m not sure about the preperation on that joint.. could you tell me more about it ..thank!
+Mathieu Girard I use 2mm gap with I groove, what else do you need to know?
Attis k

Very good welding. I've never used stainless stick welding with my powerarc welder. They must be pretty expensive.
Watch my videos
love that beautiful weld
very nice short arc weld
Good job!
I am below rookie level welder... my wish is to weld like that some day :)
Practice everyday and after a month you'll be on a higher level 😎
Hello, any chance you could list your settings and electrode size? I have to pass this same test for my welding school
if it is a welding school they should provide you a WPS.
I wish I could get mine to come out like that!
the keyboard welders
XDDDD
i also tried 2mm pipe but i had problems.
not enough current = no good penetration and no slag on the inside (bad for stainless)
and
too much current = have to move fast zigzag motion to prevent burning holes + only few centimeters welding possible because of heat building up too fast.
good weld for me...using stainless rod is not easy,,,im appreciating how he did it 1pass only....wow amazing
bruh, I'd be psyched
I don't get it, 6g is 4mm.. but in the description you say pipe is 2mm, which it does look like. surely the isnt 4mm?
muy bien esta bueno soldador como profesional su trabajo
very nice man I have 200a tig/mma inverter IMA give it a try looks like it l work for my turbo downpipe
So you single pass the weld, would that pass any test or visual test if you did it like that in the field for a pipeline?
Yes it would pass. If this was on a field I would have grinded my re starts flatter.
How much pressure do you think it would hold? And how does the xrays look on it? Thats preety easy to do it all in one pass root hot pass fill and cap. I figured alot of trash would be in it slag porosity pin holes ect... I wouldn't be comfortable doing it one pass but if you do it and its up to code you can bump production up
+Rosalio Morales the pipe is only 2mm thick, it only needs one pass.
@@Popshockercrx how many passes can a man make on 2mm thick material?
nice video..thanks guys bygone upload
By the way, great weld!
wow made it look easy nice.
Are you using a lot of arc force?
I can`t remember it and I don´t care about it. It is what it is. When you do this for years you can see how the puddle runs and now how to control it, I cannot tell it better
good welding how much,ampere/volt...thank you
Oops sorry it is the 6G position, and darn good welding!
Hi! What electrode did you use? 7018? Or 7014? Also on how many amps did you start off? Thanks!
Esab 63.20-316L
I started from 10 amps and then rise it up, dont know really what amps I had when I welded it,
probably somewhere around 25 to 35 amps, then turn it down to 10 amps again when I stopped welding.
7018 and 7014 are made for black steel.
what kind of rod,? diameter and number,and i figure 27,32 amp? thank
Attis K can you tell me the polarity allowed for these rods? AC\DC?
Low amps and 2.5's seems to be the way forward.
good video this is what I need thanks
root,fill & cap with 1 pass...this pipe for???
Peroz Jhon its clearly a practice piece. we arent at work... chill
What are the rods you use...let’s say I know nothing bout welding
I’ve been welding stainless handrail for a few weeks now with 3/32 316L at about 75 amps, gotta say it is a pain in the ass! Hard to see the puddle with all the slag that it produces. Any tips??
Turn ya heat down. 75 is too high.
i would like to know if its possible to not burn the stainless while stick welding. I fill my pipe with tig and have no discoloration. Then I cap with stick and it blackens like your pipe as well. Is it possible to keep that from happening?
excellent job.!

Agreed.
Any recommendations for someone looking into buying a stick welder for stainless and aluminum repairs for small jobs? Not sure what Arc welder to purchase for occasional use?
Kemppi minarc evo 180.
we use the 1.6 esab ok 6320. Du you recut the gap as you go on welding? Couldnt se any grinding here.
Yes I grind it, just didnt want to film it.
I used 63.20 also, 2mm electrode.
Now try that with a V groove with about 2 inches of room underneath the pipe to weld.
just burn the rod down. easy.
Only uphill buddy. Amateur
yeah, im the amateur haha...
Sean White
Can do it both ways. This is just the way how we usually weld stainless stick test´s

Long arcing at the end of your rod while stick welding is NOT like tapering off the footpedal when TIG welding...
+Knolltop Farms Yes it is, I have a remote in my other hand and I reduce my amps to 10 amps when I terminate my weld.
+Attis k I won't bother explaining the physics of electricity to you over the web, but it is simple enough to note that the shielding properties of your rod's flux do not extend out past the immediate area around the puddle(that's why they create slag to prevent oxidation), so this is just a fancy way to waste time and materials...
+Knolltop Farms Why I do this at the end of the weld, is becouse I don´t want to have a pinhole at the end

+Knolltop Farms loser
what grade of Stainless Steel? And I noticed you adjust your amperage as your welding? What amp you start & where about's?
gostei muito da maneira que conduz o eletrodo, amperagem bem baixa... eu gostei.. alguem ai entende português?
Ele tava controlando a amperagen no pedal
what kind of lens are you using to film, is it good to put on the solder mask?
Not bad for stainless stick application i personally would much rather TIG weld it !
Can see the rainbow 🌈 perfect weld
with uneven arc length ,,is that good
Is there an electrode type that is stainless after welding and can be used in food industry?
maybe something like 1.4430 or 1.4332
Helo boss nak tanya SS rood 2.6 welding paiping api brapa paling cantik? Terima kasi sifu
Do you think I can do this with my buzz box? Haha
can you advise on how to set up control for MMA welding.
Do u usually stick weld your stainless pipe or tig it?
If I can decide I stick weld it, becouse I dont have to worrie about gasses and so on. But when I am working I have to do as the code tells me.
Most of the time I am stick welding stainless, it also depents what kind of a factory I am working, papermills usually want us to use stick and heat plants and oil factories want tig welding.

i did not see what u clean the flux with was good
Good job bro
y such a close arch.
what rod are you using?
2 mm, Esab OK 63.20 rod.
Beautyfull , how parameters ??
2mm cap and amperage somewhere around 23-30 maybe.
I don´t no cause I didn´t look at the machine.
Thanks :D
Di' Kudii no problem. :D

What rod for stainless? Thanks
308, 316...
for stainless to other: 307, 309, 312
heat resistant stainless: 310
qwertz33 thankyou
Man what rods are you using?
308-l16
Is that schedule 10
what are u hold in ur left hand?
Remote control.
sorry, remote for gas?
For amps, no gas needed for stick
owh ok..can u make a video for cap 6g smaw 7018?
mrgerebo Maybe some day, I dont have so much interest for video making right now.
snyggt sätt att slippa pipen
Jees. I know 😊 these are the best rods in the world. Elga have also good rods ...
stopped at :46 sec... wheres your root? this should have a tig root????????
How to do that??
ac or dc welding??
you rod stanless. mm??wyh?
Minus pol?
что за электроды?
Wow... good
Nice
awesome
We need 6010 root pas for 6G welding please
Профессионал
Should have done it like a Government job and saved time, just use the J.B. Weld
bad weld there are a lot of faults in the final cap..this weld is 100% not accepted
Is this strong?
Strong enough that if you'd bend the pipe, it would crack from the weld joint last.
Aspect look nice penetration look also Ok well done :-)
would be ok in most of the maintenance and pipe work who doesnt required Xray control :-)
It passes x-ray, no problem. It's common thing here to weld this kind of stainless pipe with stick.
Its nice to see a skilled stickwelder! Exray quallity has nothing to do with welding proces, only the skill of the welder. This Guy is probably from Finland, the welding people!:)
