Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect beveling for welding, leading to incomplete fusion.Always follow ASME B31.3 or applicable industry standards for correct bevel angle and root face preparation.
Failure to properly clean pipe ends before welding, causing inclusions.Thoroughly degrease and remove any mill scale or contaminants from pipe ends and bevels using approved cleaning methods.

Common Applications

  • High-pressure hydraulic systems
  • Chemical processing pipelines
  • Steam and water distribution

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always verify material compatibility with transported media.
  • Ensure adherence to all applicable safety regulations and welding codes during installation.
