How To Weld Sanitary Pipe Part 2

[@standslanted]

Nice video with great content! Truly needed on KZbin as no one seems to cover this topic. I built a brewing system about 10yr ago and just rebuilt it over again (now all electric). Want to weld on the fittings but couldn't find anyone discussion this topic on youtube until i found these videos. Thanks!

[@joshuahooper8860]

Love this video! I convert old kegs into brewing equipment and love watching others post video of fusion welds, especially pulse fusion welding. I would love to see a video of you welding some 1.5" ferrules on a keg or even a 55gal stainless drum! When you are done you can even sell it to someone in the brewing industry

[@keirhamilton]

Welding ferrules onto a keg is super useful. You can make yeast brinks with them. That's what brought me here!

You can tell you definitely make 6 figures! Thanks for using your valuable time to help us learning, im trying to make a bright future for my family and this helps!

[@summersoldier3311]

I'm learning a lot from these videos!

[@rubvil456]

Great list of videos! took me a while to find the right guidelines on the topic for a beginner. Cheers!

[@Justintimemetal]

We do sanitary tubing too. We do it a bit different so it is interesting seeing your methods compared to how we do it. Gives us some stuff to try in the future to see what works best for us.

[@derekbryant6137]

Been watching your content for a long time and i must say I have learned a lot from you love the channel. You're a inspiration thanks for all the cool videos.

[@DarlingtonFarm]

Thanks

[@derekbryant6137]

You're welcome 👍

What's the heat at?

[@eharris6347]

Cool !! Basically just dry washing everything , not adding any filler metal , I could get use to that !

[@garyteague4480]

So glad u shared this, I too watched the other guys and tho their heart was in the right palace I remembered 20 years ago that we didn’t do it that way

[@MRTYREMULISHA]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge,a purge line in the middle of that table would be cool run it up in the centre pipe in the the jack stand. Dont know how usful it would be for you just an idea

[@marioochoa4298]

Can you do a video with sanitary tubing again but in a fixed position? I just got a job welding I'll be doing sanitary installs but I'm having trouble positioning myself and the torch in a freehand position.

[@nnemekaani7177]

Don't know if it is possible, but I will love to learn from you sir

[@summersoldier3311]

How do you know your purge is adequate on a long section of pipe?

[@johnjabster2247]

How did you find customers at first . What did you start with?

[@johnjabster2247]

Did a website help bring business

[@ajsironworks3937]

Dude you’re a good welder. Nice work.

[@thefluffychub5604]

I'm having one heck of a time with welding this stuff... I cant seem to keep it consistent.. I'm using a little lincoln 210mp as well as a lincoln 200 square wave.. same results on both.. I've tried running lower argon flow.15.and higher 35 on flow meter .. also tried ranges from 20-60 just trying to figure it out Also tried different cups and gas lenses.. nothing ever comes out flush on the outside or flat inside.. mostly I get concave outside (dipped in) and concave on the inside .. any help would be greatly appreciated. Ps. I'm running the purge plug system as well I'm currently working in a cheese factory and I'm having a horrible time figuring this out ... I've been welding for a long time .. stainless and income and other crazy stuff... I just cant get this to work..

[@keirhamilton]

If you had to choose either the 210mp or the 200tig, which would it be? for TIG welding of course.

[@thisdj83]

You need to see how much pressure is running out from where you are letting the purge leak out. Lick the back of your hand and you should be able to feel the purge faint at 6” this will make your welds flush inside and out. Good luck.

[@michaelshades4373]

If you welded one onto a bigger diameter tank would you weld both sides or just the inside?

[@DarlingtonFarm]

depends on the thickness and what kind of mood I'm In

[@JJ-jv1gu]

EXCELLENT VIDEO u must of gotten a bachelors of welder since degree huh

[@sgr5287]

what is your downslope set?

[@timhickey9687]

Very informative, thanks! Is there ever a need to polish/clean the inside of the tube? Or do you just rely on CIP systems.

[@DarlingtonFarm]

Thanks, Most of the time after it gets cip washed with an acid and a caustic wash so no need. Depending on the application they will get pasivated with is an acid bath just depends on the application

[@samuelfisher6132]

Just wondering why are you not purging while doing your tacks?

[@kf8575]

Very quick split second blast to instantly fuse the pieces together, at say 120-130amps, with a very sharp tungsten and you can get away with no purge just for tacking.

[@jcporosity4764]

Do u walk the cup or just drag? Clean purge welds

[@DarlingtonFarm]

I free hand it for most stuff, most places i work don't like cup walking on sanitary

[@jcporosity4764]

@@DarlingtonFarm ok so guest all depends on the customer. I know walking the cup leaves scratching from the cup

[@kf8575]

If youve got a big volume to purge (like the kettle you showed) why not simply use more purge lines. Works great if youve got a large volume to purge, by getting big volumes of gas into it in one go.

[@AustinWhitehead9]

Do they ever do any x-ray or die pen testing on sanitary tubing or is it all visual? What kind of weld test would they do for this kind of work? Thanks.

[@DarlingtonFarm]

I've never seen anything beyond visual. Most is not running any kind of crazy pressure.

[@MrBurningrubber]

So how come you don't use any filler wire ?

[@DarlingtonFarm]

Filler introduces oxidation and can cause pits which hold bacteria

[@MrBurningrubber]

@@DarlingtonFarm I disagree I work in that industry and have always used filler. When everything is purged there are no inclusions in the weld. Not only that but it also is less likely to crack due to there being added strength. As where a weld with no filler wire is more likely to stress crack. You can also get the same flat profile on the inside of the weld.

[@stevennoyb4595]

@@MrBurningrubber most cracks are in the haz, not the weld itself.

[@weldingjunkie]

Nice job! You’ve come along way working with the guy you work for. What kind of use on your dynasty? You using the max star the most? What size and metal is that plate?

[@ecr125x]

6060 t651 .500" ... it says it right on the plate.

[@weldingjunkie]

Thanks my eyes didn’t pick that up.

[@d.gosset4745]

not showing the root?

[@DarlingtonFarm]

No root, sanitary is one pass

[@clanhojo74]

Most guys in the field walk the cup on sanitary pipe. I am curious why you did not show that technique. Nice work though.

[@DarlingtonFarm]

Think I depends on where you are. Been in a couple places that was ok. But most I'm in it's not.

[@Hardstyler981]

@@DarlingtonFarm how did you learn all of this?

[@DarlingtonFarm]

@@Hardstyler981 I got lucky, started working with a crew that needed a hand with some schedule stainless pipe. Didn't screw any thing up so I got asked to help with more and more which turned into this

[@thisdj83]

Actually. Hot and fast. Do not go slow. You are cooking it.
