Was a Boilermaker welder, on construction sites. My work was doing "certified" welds on high pressure powerhouse boilers, refineries, blast furnaces. It involved new and repair work. Many "rod burners" can do their work, standing at a jig or table. A "welder" can do the same quality welds standing, sitting, laying down, on their stomach, on their back or (as I once had to) bending over and welding between my legs (inside a boiler steam drum. Had my weld pimp comment that he didn't know we had to learn to weld standing on your head. Told him, "You don't, but if you want to get the job done, you better learn how".

@@tittlemouse92 I truly loved my career as a union Boilermaker welder/mechanic. I admit I didn't put down the "textbook perfect" welds some people here post. I can honestly say, that in over two decades, working with the tools, I never had put in a weld that failed a test, nor did I fail to certify. There were times that, because of this, I was sent to jobs where the welder (I replaced) had taken a shortcut and got caught. You can look into a welding program at a local community College, to learn the basics. If there was advice I'd give someone it would be to be: 1. Patience, when you hurry you miss things and make mistakes. 2. Make sure the surface/s your welding are "clean from any contaminate/s". Even if you're at a welding course and get a test coupon, run a torch flane over the area your going to weld, to remove any oils. Use a grinder (disc or burr) to remove scale from the metals. If it's a tube, that means inside and out, about 1/2" along the area you'll weld. Working on a boiler for a 650 megawatt powerhouse. The customer wanted a section of water wall tube cut out/replaced for testing purposes. The material was a chrome alloy steel. Chrome alloy welds don't like dirt, of any kind. I had a good rapport with the customer weld tech, and he knew my welding. I marked and cutout the piece to be tested, located and cut/prepped the replacement piece as described above. My shift was over and the next crew came in to continue the work. They were to prep the existing area/insert/tack the new piece in. The weld procedure called for a heli-arc root and stick fill/cover. This weld was a bit tricky as I could only see/weld three-quarters of the tube. My partner, on the other side did the rest. As I heli-arced the weld and got to the spot directly 8n front of me, the weld puddle started to get bubbles in it. A clear sign that the area had never been cleaned and the weld wouldn't hold. The weld tech was called and authorized cutting the tube back out, 4 inches (either end) longer so we could see what happened. Once removed you could clearly see the area that bubbled had not been cleaned properly. The weld tech informed my boss that the other crew wasn't going to weld any more. The job was mine to complete.

@samwhite1823 Жыл бұрын
6010 has all kinds of benefits as a root/hot pass rod. However some pipework requires properties that 7018 excels at providing. Lots of reasons for both depending on setting and application I'm afraid! I don't want to get ahead of your college or confuse anything you're being taught so just keep at it the knowledge will come 👍

Love to know why, if the procedure demands 7018 rods (hydrogen controlled) you are putting a 6010 rod in the root. The root being the main area susceptible to hydrogen cracking. As a qualified welder and inspector, retired, even the modern 6013 rods have more cellulose than is good for them and are no longer any good for structural steels. But a 6010 is right out of spec. I would love to hear the logic ,or lack of it, from other weldwrs.😊😊😊

If 7018 is required. 60 series rod would not be used. The root would have to be 7018.
