6. SHIELDED METAL ARC WELDING (Pipe)
This course is designed to teach students to weld in all position using the S.M.A.W. welding process on
carbon steel pipe to T.S.S.A. standards.
Theory
- Welding Safety
- Power sources
- Welding Parameters
- Rod Identification
- Basic Machine Maintenance
Practical
Welding root passes with E6010 electrode all positions. Plate progressing to pipe in the 1G, 2G, 5G and 6G positions.
Welding pipe with E7018 electrode in the 1G, 2G, 5G and 6G positions (fill and cap welds).
Alternative test: E7018 root and E7018 fill and cap in the 1G, 2G, 5G and 6G positions.
