Dual Shield Flux Core and 7018 Stick Welding Uphill 

I appreciate you and JD representing the dual shield Jody. I’ve been sold on the process for years and the proof is in the work. It’s a better weld for heavy gage steel and like ya’ll say, it burns through every time!

Awesome comparison! Dual shield really takes the prize here and for ease of training as well. Replacement for stick no bit definitely an improvement! Thanks for sharing

Everytime you guys get together good things happen!! Great video.

Excelent teaching! Thank You and JD.

Thanks, Jody! I always learn something from your videos.

Jody and JD, awesome info packed video guys!!!! Thank you

Great demo between stick and wire very informative liked it.

Nice stop / starts on those beads with the 7018s. Respect 💯

Another great learning video. I have been running 350 wire speed at around 25.5 volts on our schools big dual wire Lincoln machine. It's easy to control for me because of certain arm and hand issues I have. But I will change up tonight when doing my butt and "T" joint welds for testing.

great video jody...thanks a lot.m always waiting yr vid.🙂🙏

Great videos Jody! Lost of info and straight to the point.

I love watching these videos! Thank for making them man. If you ain't welding you ain't working

That was awesome! I'd love to hear more about the adjustment on the ground due to "arc blow". Thanks for the video!

Another outstanding video, thanks!

You the man Jody thanks for the awesome video

Great demo, you make it look easy!

Those welds look great! I run 052 with 100%c02 27v 360ipm on 3/4” plate vertical up side to side just like 7018looks like glass. Never leave your puddle

Wow! Great video, I dun did learnd something today. Thank you, Dual shield sounds like a great option to give some thought to. 👍👍

I feel arc is still the winner, but it shows you have a very fast and effective way to mig weld as well. There is nothing wrong either way. Very nicely done ✅

Great video. I’d love to see a comparison like this throwing some .045 or .052 metal core in the mix. We’ve almost jumped ship on the flux core in favor of it. They all have their place, but we are really taking a liking to the metal core lately. Again, great content as always. 👍🏻👍🏻

Hi Jody, the most likely reason you had problems with arc blow and JD didn’t was because you were still welding at the same time as JD so you were both cancelling out any magnetic field but when JD stopped welding and you carried on the magnetic field was allowed to build up giving you problems, arc blow is always worse at the end of any fillet and is always as a result of magnetism, and opposing poles, one way to make it more manageable is to switch to AC, of course you then have more problems with spatter!, we used to use magnetic arc deflection ((basically controlled arc blow) to run a weave using semi automatic TIG machines when welding deep narrow gap butts with a static tungsten, another trick when stick welding pipe butts that were having problems with arc blow especially when trying to put in a root run was to get a mate to wind a few turns of his tong cable round the pipe just below the butt and weld on a piece of scrap with 5mm or 6mm rods while you welded the butt as this would cancel out the magnetic field, old tricks now but they worked a treat when site welding a 50mm W/T butt 1 metre in diameter and 10 metres long on a rig jacket 😊 another excellent video by the way 👍

Really nice work.

Excellent demonstration, work speed benefits are clear for the dual shield. I'm interested in the followup demo of arc blow issues. Worse at the end suggests a heat buildup problem.

Very nice tutorial.

Great video quality too Jody 👊🏻

I had to look up Dual Shield as I am a bit behind the curve, it sure does make a nice quicker weld.

Fascinating!! Thank you for including the cut'n'etch, very important. Almost got me thinkin' of hanging up my stinger and grabbing a gun.....almost😉

Hey guys....I just discovered your channel today and I'm really liking it. This is something I have been wanting to ask a wire feed welder as my roots in welding started at the so cal gas company back in 86. In 1988 I was sent off to Pico Rivera,ca to go through their 6" overhead course which is a solid 8 weeks. I noticed a pattern of a triangle that you were using as you progressed uphill and I understand why so that the weld will lay down properly, it is necessary to progress the heat and width of the puddle forward so the bead lays down. Some arc welders use a Z pattern which brings me to my question. In the oxy/acet course I took the most important rule of thumb was to burn a "Keyhole" which actually looks just like a skeleton keyhole as your weld advances. The hardest weld that we had to do in the field was fitting two halves of a fitting to a pipeline for pressure control purposes. In school it was notoriously known as a pad weld. A 1/4" pad that covered 180 degrees of the 4" pipeline using a 4 tip. When we start at the bottom after the tacks are in place, the motion on the bottom of the pipe was a long "J" motion on the pipe and burning the inside lanyard of the pad. This is of course torch following rod at a constant 45 degree angle. As you start heading up the sides the motion changes to a "C" motion from about 7 to 11 and then back into a long "J" motion only on top, the long stroke is on the pad and not the pipe as the heat transfer follows upward. I started mig welding years ago and found it to be my favorite using millermatic products. I noticed that all the motions that I was taught in oxy/acet exactly applied to my mig experience when welding. An example would be I'm adjoining an 1/8" plate in the vertical position to a plate on the ground forming a 90 degree shape with an 1/8" gap making for a forward left to right movement (I'm left handed) fillet weld. As I work through the weld I am doing a long "J" motion on the pad and a short upstroke making sure not to have undercut. I am basically using all the patterns from my oxy/acet training days in my mig welding and they seem to work just fine. Do u also incorporate certain patterns across the board in different types of welding?

Arc blow and ground position video YES PLEASE!

Great comparison thanks.

Loved it 💯

Need more videos and Pod cast!!!!

Thank you

Dual Shield is the only way to go in a shop environment. But out in the field with wind, dust, rust, grime, and constantly moving around up 300 feet all the way down to ground-level within the hour arc welding is the only way to go and will never be replaced👌

Stick welding uphill with 7018 is definitely something i need to practice on. Gotta remember to put some time to that the next time I've got the everlast welder out.

Funny description @ 7:10, good 0' shop talk.

A video on 1/16 dual shield would be really interesting. We run lots here in Wyoming

teacher ,regards from colombia

Thanks for all yourr work. It would be really cool to talk about the effects of the welding gases used for Steel FCAW (CO2 vs Argon + CO2 Mix) how it affects the bead, the parameters etc. A good topic for the future . Thanks again.

The god father oj welding did it again with great video thanks Jody

Love me some 3/32 dual shield

The flux core really penetrates.

thanks for the great videos, could you tell me what wire gage to use for a 240 application

I’d like to see you do a video on .045 dual shield on stainless. I’ve ran a bunch of it being a tank builder. Just like to see how you would do it

Esab rebel just a outstanding welding machine 💯🇺🇸💪👍

Question. I was looking at the grain structure of the weldment on the dualshield cut and etch. I noticed that the grain orientation was nearly straight into the corner of the weld, and that the fan was from the arc cone to toward all the edges of the weld. When you do your etching do you see similar grain structures in the Mig or Arc welds? Also do you know if the grain structure and the surface tension at the surface of the weld is different than that at the toe or edge of the weld puddle. I was thinking about differential cooling and how it might allow the inner parts of the pool to anneal compared to the surface of the weld. I imagine that it accounts for some of the pull that happens when tacking, and welding.

28 and 280. That's the golden ticket

Dual shield is the shit in my opinion since on my one and only 3G mig test which was dual shield I did a stringer root and weaved it all the way out which I was allowed to do but my weave on my cap was over a half inch or so on both sides and it was a wide weave but my hot and fill passes were pretty. I had all 4 bend straps pass

Have you ever ran a millermatic 252? Having trouble with verticle where the metal wants to hump in the middle. I was running around 24v and 275ipm .045. I tried to fine tune and it was just horrible aggravating me. The metal thickness varied. It was 1/4 gussets to a 3/8 plate.

brilliant

Hey guys. Please do a dual-shield how to with stainless plates. Thanks!!

Wow. That dual shield flux got great penetration. Definitely a compelling argument for the amount of time it saved as well. Any downside?

Jodi, what polarity where you two using with the Esab 7100 wire?

hi, first of all: GREAT VIDEOS. I have a question: what are the cons if I weld with MIG by making many little spot welds instead a continouse weld. Apart that it is slover, are there other cons ?

I see the machine has a FLUX CORE setting, but is there any adjustment that is used to take into account that this is dual shield? Also what is the electrode setting, Electrode Negative or Positive?

hello jody,can you give me any tips how to avoid overlap on fluxcore start n stop weld.i get a problem with that,😅..sory for bad english..i hope you can help me..fans from malaysia..☺

Nice

I want to try some dual shield in my Everlast welder.

Great video, I would like to see some actual projects like on the older videos. Seeing scrap all the time gers a bit tiresome.

Question did JD like the Esab 285 better than his Lincoln MP 210

That was interesting

Where can I get one of those white pipeline helmets with the flip front?

Great video again Jody How do costs compare, between 7018 and dualshield ?

Shhhhhhh. Class is in session.

+weldingtipsandtricks So i have a few questions about the dual shield flux cored process. I have before welded 4G with the same size wire with and without, ZERO manipulation of the gun. I took a weld test last friday and the wire used was 1/6" flux cored, dual shielded. First time using that specific size wire. Felt very confident with the test and everything looked good although i was not able run a single pass without manipulating the gun. I was fortunate enough to get a feel for the machine and dial my settings in on a piece of scrap prior to the test. But again i wasnt able to find the correct settings to run stringers or any pass for that matter without manipulating the gun. Does wire size depend on whether or not you can weld 4G with or without manipulating the gun??? Has anyone else welded 4G with 1/6" flux cored dual shielded wire?

Are you going to be at fabtech this year.

I use 1/16 flux core wire and I have a weld test tomorrow... All position check test. I'd like to see a video on 1/16 overhead welding. I know it's heavy wire but I would like some advice. It seems like I have to weave verticle up with that wire to get it flat. Any suggestions?

Looks like dual shield might be the solution for my biggest problem welding-- impatience. I get in a hurry and try to move faster than the weld puddle wants to. The down side is the cost to get set up for no more than I would use it.

What product do you apply for see the penetration? Thanks.

I remember a video with dual shield in a lincoln 210mp. Is there a general all around wire and size for that machine? Any settings thoughts for that?

I am a bit confused about dual shield. Can't you just use standard fluxcore and CO2?

Can a dual shield wire like you used be used in a situation that calls out for low hydrogen filler?

Hey Jodi, would running that 7018 on AC help prevent that arc blow problem?

Hey Jody why do they use the stick welding process instead of flux core in the pipe line industry?

Are these settings for real?? I've only just begun being a welder, and we use dual shield flux. For my weld test, I had to do a 15 inch vertical stinger on a T joint. They had been using the machine to run on the flat position so it was at 185 inches per minute and 26 volts. That was entirely too much and I still tried it. Came out all sh!$$/. They said I HAD to adjust, but one of the guys had said it was good settings, to try it. Anyway, I went to what was more comfortable for me from school, 135 inches per minute and 19.6 Volts. My welds were great and I was hired. It just blows mind the kind of settings a lot of guys on YT weld at and it doesn't appear like so. The travel speed seems like a turtle's pace for so much heat and electrode being fed

I was going to try dual shield with my Everlast welder, but the board burned up.

Try that with dual shield straight co2

On duel shield how is it out in the field with wind and the elements compared to stick? Any comments

Dual shield is great stuff but damn it's pricey. If you're running a shop and pay people to weld dual shield will pay for it's self and then some.

What’s that stuff he rubbed on it

How bout running some 7016

Hey Jody, you convinced me to give dual shield a try! I am going to buy a roll, any suggestions on brand and type for .045? General fab work. Love your work keep it up!

Try 232 inner shield

What wire did JD use?

What kind of gas does dual shield flux core use ? Argon and co2 ?

The only dumb questions are the ones you don't ask? Right? With that said. What is the strength of the dual sheild? An how would you know depth of penetration on the cut an etch? Or how much depth of penetration do you need to achieve the maximum strength of the dual sheild?

semiautomatic, demonitized.

Me gustan mucho sus vídeos buen maestro; si hubiera la manera de agregarle subtítulo en español sería genial, Gracias

Maestralno

goated

WHAT KIND OF LEMS IS THAT!!?? ANYBODY KNOW?????

When you cut and etch could you spend more time explaining what you’re looking for.

You should give 1/16” DualShield wire with 100% co2.... let’s just say you gotta move fast!

ถ้ามีตู้แบบนี้..กุเชื่อมสวยกว่ามึงอีก
