I had to take a 3g one inch test 2 days ago. I watched this video the night before my test because I haven't flux core welded in a very long time followed his instruction to a tee and passed on the first try. Great video

Good job man I’m taking a flux core test today after only welding fcaw one time😅

I took a WABO (Washington Board) 1" unlimited 3G FCAW this week. No downhill root, no mig root, 3/8" backer, no grinding on root but grinding was allowed on subsequent passes. Fairly lenient test. But I want to say thanks, this video gave me a strategy. My root went in like shit but I recovered on my hot pass. Then middle left, middle right. This video definitely gave me a good strategy. I just watched the puddle work it's way up on the plate from mid. Wasn't a perfect test, but it passed the bend with flying colors. Thanks

[@509reeves8]

I took my WABO yesterday 3g 1inch plate. Most of this will not pass. It will with AWS though.

[@user-rv6kk1fu5e]

So lovely good job

Nice work Isaac! 💪🔥

[@tylerkeopraseuth7303]

So running the down hill pass with mig is to prevent from gouging?

[@dingo397]

Only one problem........ they don't let you grind or use a wire wheel when we test. They definitely won't let us grind a Cap pass down and then re-weld it....but it looks great... In the field it's another story, you can grind and wire wheel as much as you have to.....Excellent video....Let's face it man most people grinding or not couldn't make it look as good as yours in the end.

[@EZNRG]

Depends where you’re at

Can you guys do a 1G-2G-3G flux core with Ceramic backing on 3/4in plate 1/4-5/16 root opening test for the shipyard bois out here, theres a high demand for structural welders who can weld with ceramic backing in a lot of positions whether its vessel repair or new construction etc.

Was self shielded or dual shield flux core wire used?

[@timbeech2317]

What size wire? CC or CV. When I’ve ran fluxcore in the past we would run it on CV and at about 33 amps. Am I off?

[@salmonslayer359]

Can you do it with nr232 .072 ?

[@joesforspeed]

How long do you let the metal sit before starting each pass? Thanks for the video.

[@sorsaasefa7660]

About every 8-10 passes you let the metal cool down. As for each pass you don’t really need to wait at all, just make sure to clean it well every pass. I would suggest more stringers than weaves as it’s easier to control the puddle without running over previous slag, which might fail you a bend test.

[@jeanettealcantar367]

Jaja loved it ! ...that 2:20 tho 🤣

just wondering why no backing bar on the plate is it a AWS differnt requirements for flux?

[@ShakeJuntJr]

Open root complete penetration weld. Mainly depends on the WPS you’re welding off of. Open root is fairly common

[@natenate2280]

What size wire?

[@damiang6892]

Nice!

[@theboringchan]

Straight line stringers are easier when u have to weld for 10-12 hours a day. Easier to be consistent to 80% of us but oscillating works for some.

[@sorsaasefa7660]

Very true, and it gives you a better chance to pass a bend test if you’re not comfortable with doing oscillations, and worry about running over previous slag.

[@jamesbec9224]

Y’all should get layingbeads to come weld. I would watch that video

[@jomr9832]

wire size?

[@jbone4217]

How long to wait between each pass, ive had problems with it being too hot. And ive got a test soon for a job

[@sorsaasefa7660]

Just wait about 5-10 minutes between every 8-10 passes. Just also look for the arc gouging out the metal more than usual, that’s usually a sign that it’s too hot and you might need to wait or turn your voltage down. At the cap, make sure to let the piece cool down as much as you can and to turn down your setting so that you don’t get undercut. Hopefully this information is somewhat useful to you.

[@bprevost54]

What about when the specs say 24 volts & 280 on wire speed

[@alexfriestad9021]

why do you change to flux core instead of mig welding the whole thing?

[@sorsaasefa7660]

The whole point of the video is 3g flux welding. He uses MIG for the root instead of flux because it’s gonna to leave a lot of slag on the back side of the weld. You can still flux the root, but you’d need to back grind it to remove the slag and root weld before caping it off with a single pass.

[@JoseGarcia-cu3ne]

Nice steady..............................................arm

[@kareemedwards3341]

That current is pretty cold I find but everyone got their way of doing stuff once it passes the xray or whatever 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@skitown11]

What kind of cert. do you expect to get when you switch wire? There's no such certification.

[@compoundlml7156]

gonna be taking 3g and 4g cert for work tomorrow with 1/16th flux core 😒 no help on the internet for 1/16th lol.

[@tristanclark3294]

What speed and heat do you run your caps?

[@jc9376]

If you're doing a test where the cap is removed after it passes a visual inspection (bend test) you can turn your settings lower so that you don't get any undercut on your cap. You don't need to worry about penetration too much on your cap and depending on the position and your level of experience you can easily get undercut that may cause you to fail. Run slow beads on your cap to ensure you fill in any undercut you may or may not be creating.

[@sorsaasefa7660]

Lower your settings and make sure your piece cools down so that you don’t get undercut.

[@ZENERVOLTAGE]

Just wondering why in this case it's best to run downhill for the first weld. I thought uphill was the best? Thanks.

[@sorsaasefa7660]

Honestly it is, most places would make you do uphill on roots with MIG. Idk why he had to do downhill since it’s harder than uphill.

[@Kballs]

@@sorsaasefa7660 downhill is standard for almost all companies mig roots. Never heard of uphill roots on 3G. Downhill is way easier than uphill.

[@rafaelcastro6743]

Are you using gas ?

[@lucasnoble7936]

Are you always aloud to grind on a d1.1 test?

[@redblue40rc33]

Never count on it......grinding is evidence your screwing up your test plate.....

[@gelato3389]

So no landing when doing mig root???

[@Kballs]

No

[@Kballs]

Land if you’re stick welding only never on mig root. Or you’re not gonna get any penetration.
