WHY PURGE ?
Excerpt from Practical Welding Today March/April 2000 issue.
Purging for Pipe Welds - On Corrosion-Resistant Metals.
When welding stainless steel, titanium and other corrosion-resistant materials, creating a perfect weld environment is of the utmost importance, because the desired corrosion resistance depends on it. During welding, the heated weld seam is exposed to air and oxidizes if it is not protected. This oxidation must either be prevented or treated later. Successful welding depends in part on a combination of proper purging equipment and techniques, and these are the focus of this article.
