As an old timer constantly trying to up my game and technique, I have to say you boys have been a valuable resource for myself and the whole welding community..
hats off to y’all. 👍🏻👊🏻🇺🇸
You're not an old timer. lol
Thanks for this great video. I’m fitting socket welds at work for the first time ever with very little help from the journeymen. This video has helped me immensely🙏
I never understood how to fit pipe correctly. This video explains it pretty darn cool.
Thanks for this video! As a Piping Engineer it is very helpful to see how all of these welds are physically done. All of your videos have helped me to produce drawings and work packages that will be easier to read by the construction team and design better layouts allowing for easier welding. Your videos have helped me greatly. Well done!
Excellent video David\Moya !!! I like how you give an explanation for all the steps that you perform. That helps everyone out.
Thanks guys. Great video. I live in Tampa area and can’t find a real pipe welding job out of school. I’m ready to work but nobody is serious about putting me to work. I have a 6G combo pipe cert. So now I ended up getting a job TIG welding mostly aluminum with a great company building LNG heat exchangers.
Go to union hall
Dave is a fantastic welder. What an excellent job that would be difficult to weld in those positions in one go. 👏
Bless EXCELLENT video with perfect explanations. Thanks 😊
Great presentation, thin spring spacers are sometimes used to gap the pipe to fitting for thermal expansion... excellent demo..thank you for this educational resource.
Man he is talented, great job guys.
On a squared end I’d mark the pipe all the way around with the socket weld fitting. Or use my wrap around to give me my 1/8” gap all the way around. And use the 1/8 wire on the sides as well.
Great welding! 👍
Excellent video!
❤ Processo TIG, parabéns pelo conteúdo... BR
Well done boys.Thanks for video
Nice job guys
Looking good!!
Awesome work.....
Good job...thanks
Now y’all need to make a video on how to ring those welds.
Excellent Good Jobs My friend
Good fit, Nice welds! Every refinery I've worked has asked for 2 visible passes. Love that weave though.
Very good explanation,. Good camera work also thumbs up
Can y’all do another video just like this but with a close up of his movements! Thank you! Great video btw
Good job bro
2:20 dude was like "Hood, you mean hand?"
"I know how much fabrication pisses you off, but please, refrain from upper cutting the pipe."
I have also come across welders who knock the outside corner off a framing square and use that.
Good morning explanation of socket weld fittings. How much thx of fillet weld. Please share. Thanks for your outstanding TH-cam channels.
Let’s see some thinner wall stainless sockets
A very good welder. I want to learn with you. I am from Algeria. I want a white welding mask. I like it
Thats a school!!! Trust me I the real world it's totally different.. come out the the ship yard!!!
Or a fab shop
What's totally different about it? Almost every job I've made socket welds on, you bottom it out, scribe a line around the pipe at the top of the socket fitting, back the socket fitting off of the line from 1/16" - 1/8" (depending on the prints) for thermal expansion and then tack it to get fit up bought off. Then, weld it out. So, what does "that's a school" have anything to do with it? They are doing it right and it's exactly how you should do it in the field. And, there are actually more in depth ways to do it as well. That way, the QC can 100% verify that you backed that fitting off from being bottomed out before you weld it.
Hey yo nice welds, parron my question what brand is the brown welding jacket please , I’d love to have the link. Thanks
Ima have to move to Texas
🔥
Cup size, Tungsten size, how much stick out and torch? CFH on argon mix?
What brand is your white welding helmet?
Some of the stainless stuff out there, we use a mallet instead of a carbon hammer. 🙌
Slick
They make rings for this.
Boa tarde
Tem como eu fazer um curso com vocês
Sou do Brasil
Hayudenme a trabajar con ustedes soy de Colombia son unos máster in tig
Niceee
Why not use high frequency instead of scratch start? Seems like everyone in the USA uses scratch start.
Do you have to account the 1/8 gap for the socket into the measurements or does it suck back once welded out
Yes include gap & takeoffs. Be careful though, the blue book doesn’t account for 1/8” gap, Chico cards have it with a gap. Always double check
👍👍👍👍
How the heck are you holding that torch so close to the cup? Are they water cooled? Have you burnt all the feeling out of your fingers?
El procedimiento de soldadura no lo están aplicando correctamente, la primera pasada ha de hacerse sin aportacion únicamente con el material de los 4 puntos de soldadura y así evitar que quede camara entre pasadas
What's size cup you use
8 usually but some size sockets welds I’ll change up to a 10 or 12
I can’t recall ever seeing someone “palm” a torch like our man David did on that first weld. No disrespect intended… just trying to figure out why he does it this way.
I put roots in holding up like that gives a little more control wiggling the cup in my opinion
You have way more control when holding the rig that way. On smaller diameter welds, where your torch angle is changing constantly, it's easier to hold it that way and have better control while walking the cup around that small diameter piping. When you weld on big bore/large diameter, it's waaaay easier because even though you are still welding it in a certain position, the larger surface area makes it closer to welding a flat plate in different postions all the way around that pipe. Where as welding a small diameter, it changes your torch angle every 1/4" or less. Small bore=faster and more drastic change in torch angle, so you need to be faster and more accurate. Large bore=slower and less drastic change in torch angle, so you have more time to account for little off wobbles or mistakes here and there.
Ive seen people pull away as soon as they finish a tack/weld, why do they do this? I just let it slope down on its own?
Because he’s using a machine with scratch start. Basically you initiate the arc by touching the tungsten to the work. The only way to terminate the arc without a pedal or a trigger is to roll or pop off like he’s doing. If done improperly you will leave a pin hole all the way thru the pipe called a fisheye.
Instead of going to school, find a job as a helper, study these videos, n practice at work

Need to turn that machine up another 80
Is this scratch start ?
Yes
Respect. But I have to point out that those are not socket welds. Those are technically lap welds on socket fittings, right? A socket weld is where the actual weld itself fills up the socket, usually you'll find a hole in one plate on top of another plate which you have to fill up with weld. Maybe I'm just being pedantic. Either way, great work guys! You have great skill and your welds are very neat. Well done!
I thought that was a plug weld. [s]Maybe they’re the same thing?[/s]
Lmao these are definitely socket welds..
@@logantoney4525 ASME B16.11
@@twestgard2 you put a plug in a socket, right?
@@thomascraig3694 I think ASME is the authority that defines what’s what for welding and according to them this is a socket weld.
Yo get that cameraman some gloves!! How come he don't get no PPE???
1/8th gap from where ?
From where the fitting bottoms out.
New gloves?
Looks like you're scratch starting?
How the hell do you keep your white sugar scoop that clean.. you should see mine😅
Notice how they are NOT threaded with oil everywhere. Nice and clean. But using 70 series wire on cast to carbon?
It’s a forging not cast s/a105 material
@@cirizawelding5076 copy that, just thought with a Mn% of .60 - 1.0 and Carbon .35 a 70 series would be too brittle. Welded cast to carbon and dissimilar metals for over three decades but not forgings. Good to know. BTW great looking welds👍
why don't turn the pipe and tack from the top the second one?😂
aesthetically perfect welds, but a metalworking company would fail with your welding times
No Time to walk the cup in the real Life 😂 or if you dont have so Much at work
I see it done everyday all day long. Reputable companies focus on safety, quality then production. If you work somewhere that does it different you should look for a new job tbh.
@@snowkracker I work in the pharmaceutical nuclear chemical industry, we all weld by show of hands and we are paid by inches, so 80 to 100 inches per day for 8 hours per day. and a show of hands does not mean no quality.. everything is x-rayed and customers are straddling visual quality
Freehand junkie bud
DISCLAIMER: Watching these videos does not signify enough experience to apply as a welder or fitter anywhere. I really wish people would get the "fake it til you make it" mentality out of my line of work. Does nothing but devalue the trade.
Yeah you can go tell your kids what to do not everyone else
Why not u speak in Hindi.....if u don't mind
