AWS D1.1 Flux Core Weld Test | Dual Shield 

👇WeldTube Store👇 www.weldlife.com

Very few people mention to preheat the test plate before welding or not to let the plate get too hot between passes.

Also DON'T use "open ended" hand protectors, when doing overhead fluxcore. As the slag falling off will get caught in the open end. Use closed ended "mit" type protection.

Nice work Abraham 👊👊

Good job!🔥🔥 nice vertical flux-core👍👍

Bruh hold up. Am I The only one who caught that abe is doing a duel shield process but selected the "Flux Core - No Gas" setting lol. Good welds either way brotha. thanks for the vid

Could you guys do video on demagnetizing pipe or just steel in general for welding, thanks

Don't take the test-welder's equipment for granted when you go in to test. Nothing burns like getting halfway through your root pass to discover the guy before you plugged half the gas-ports in your diffuser with overhead BB's even though the tip and visible portion of the nozzle looked clean. Always pull the nozzle off and make sure the diffuser ports are clean, and that your insulator is in good condition in addition to setting your contact-tip distance. A bad insulator makes putting in your first few passes on a 1" plate test feel like playing Operation, and you end up focusing on not brushing the faces of the bevel instead of watching your bead.

Waiting for the day you say 3.. hah jk nice welds

MTS 275 EVERLAST big mach. with a small price they kill it with all the fixtures they put it on burn back and inductance very handy

I preheat 1/2" & above after im all tacked up & set to weld. You dont have to heat it blazing hot but what you want to do is "sweat the iron" meaning you can be in a 115 degree test shop & if you preheat it, i guarantee you will see moisture bleeding out of the plate. What this does is not only help eliminate Non fusion but help the metal filler bond better with the parent metal. When I test on heavy plate or pipe i normally will use a temp stick but you can cheat by when the iron starts smoking or if your testing out on tool steel material it will change colors.Another thing your pre heating for is to avoid "Nickel Inclusions". On a break test they will show up when the parent metal & the filler material are not hot enough to blend in. Always try to run as hot as you can hancle it without blowing "buck shot" everywheres or putting most of your filler metal on the floor instead of your test. Best things most times is following the WPS. I've tested out on jobs where they're so nit picky about heat input that a inspector will shoot your test specimen with a gun after every pass. They will give you a tolerance but most times its not very much. Also don't try to "hog" the iron in, run as many multiple passes in as possiable. Hogging in the iron will alot of times guarantee you to trap slag. Preheat, run as many multiple passes as you can or allowed to do, keep it clean & be courteous to the inspector or the Q.C. They can make or break you on a test for the simplest mistake that is actually passable but still gives them the right to bust you.

Your title says dual shield . What gas were you using with you flux core wire? 75/25 ?

Try using Lincoln NR 232 .068-.072 wire. Use a Lincoln ln-25 box. No gas.

I learned alot thru this channel Can you do a 6gr flux i would love it

Not good because backing have there If you make without backing It's will call good welder You teking too much saport Without backing without saport Make weld then I will call good welder

Thanks Abraham, and what about Fcaw open Root on 2-3-4 G position, with root gap , also with and without ceramic in the back, is it possible?? Is it recommended? Thanks again Bro

Over head 4g fcaw please excample thanks

Everytime I watch one of these kinds of videos they never cut it or bend it.. I wish they would. The proof is in the pudding

Backing strip is will be welded also to the test plate itself or not? Because if pass the root i think it will be welded also.. Anyone can explain? Thankz

Is their a video out there for Aws D1.1 1" plate 3g?

Nemaš ti pojma, provar kada se radi pištolj i šoba budu oboreni prema dole dabi se ljepše i bolje formirao provar .....popuna kada se radi tada je dobro šobu gurati naprijed da izbije šljaku..... var ti je pun zajeda i ne ravnina ......

Abe: Flux Core gets Hot, wear a Heat Pad Also Abe: Uses said heat pad to rest his arm on, Not to shield the heat… 🤦‍♂️😂🤣

Where can I buy a heat pad like what you show in the video?

I like this vidio mr... from indonesia

Nice..!! Good job... I like this chanel....!!!

I loved this test out of all the processes I’ve done, this one was relaxing for some reason. I don’t know if it was the sound or the smoothness of the welds after they were finished but it was my favorite.

Hard to believe that weld is stronger than the 3/4 inch plate.

Could you do a 2g horizontal weld test with a backing strip from start to end?

What up Mr. Cool ? Can't do self-Shield FluxCore ? 232 ? Just like out in the field ? Your an instructor ? Really ?

Help me to know issually Current please

Deberían hacer los vídeos en Español latino también

Volt a wire please for root a second pass

this dude gotta lay off the bumps

How much voltase and ampere do you used and how many gas level do you use ?thanks before. From indonesia

Nice video / canyou make 2G butt joint on the ame welding FLUXCORE Thank you

You mentioned weld procedures but didn't say anything about how they arrived at those procedures thorugh testing and manufacturers recommended parameters

I’ve got a test tomorrow flux all the way out, no backing plate 1/8” gap 3/4” plate.

What if just do a strait stringer?

At the welding school i go too they dont allow weaving with fluxcore just straight stringer beads

I need a video that shows Flux Core 3G with no backing, if anyone knows of one.

Where do you get the heat proof arm shield

🇧🇩🇧🇩Mig.. welder.. 3G 🇸🇬🇸🇬

I've done that too, very hot!

Everlast 211si can i weld a 1” plate. ( i want to practice my 3g position) arc weld.

Cool video Abe--Let me hook you up with a proper headband set,,,

My machine won't spark up on Flux mig

BIG THANKS AND APPRECIATES YOU MAN FOR THIS WELDING TEST VIDEO 💯 👍

Alright 😎😎👌 Everlast😎😎👌

Please help me job I m India in walder tig and mig(co2)

You're so close you could lick the plate my guy

Wearing tests are not going to have backing strips

Musta been coming off a bender he was shakey af

Lastima que la mayoría de los videos esté inglés y no traducido

You guys need to do a nr232 weld with a ln25 feeder

Very good 👍

Is that ostrich skin on the face shield? Luxury! 👑

Did he mention the size of wire he was using?

I never removed the slag when welding the cap pass.. too many bbs gets on the cap...stays cleaner..never had a problem..11 yrs

Why is it so difficult to lay in a smooth root pass on the 1inch plate?

What tipe a wire do you use what Brend

Hey where i can find those hat you have?

where is the cutout and prep for the coupons? SMH

You should have a video with proper grinding of undercut and clean up in between welds nice vidieo

I know that for the root pass the wire speed and volts should be on the higher side for better penetration and because the plate is cold. But as the passes stack, are the settings changed? Is there any benefit to lower wft and volts? Or to keep the same?

USA welder?

Bule kalo ngelas gak keringatan ya 😂

hi bro. what is the best mig setting for 1.6mm tubing steel

Привет,а чё не говорите на каких параметрах варите,исправляйте ситуацию,не подводите меня,а так ваще , красава

Did this on a miller that was only meant for mig, got it to work for flux core dual shielded but had to lower the amperage because it just was not working, melted the crap out of 3/8’s plate.

Porque no hacen en español o por lo menos traduzcan

THIS IS DUAL SHEILD. DOESNT SAY TIL END.

3g p How many gaps in position

I burnt through those plates like butter with those settings 😅

What are the temperatures he used??

What is the wire size and type

How are you , what is the right way to weld with flux core wire its better dragin or pushing .. If u guys can help me

Good

Oh my God it's Abraham

Where can I get that arm pad?

🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♂️

Nice bro very good. Job.

Any suggestions for 3g Fluxcore open root going uphill?

I got a weld test coming up these videos help

tanks my frends

What kind of wire is that

Can you guys do fluxcore same process but without a backing strip? I had to take a test 1/8 gap without back strip, but blew it on the root was my first time taking a test like that. Fluxcore all the way 3g Thanks guys

Awesome...

Sir from rootpass to capping only one setting of ampers and vlotage?

How much gas flow are you running? 25?

Nice work

Terria que ter uma tradução pera português brasileiro.
