When I was pipeline welding is when I really was able to refine my welding skills because of the constant repetition that is required on the job. So what did I learn as a pipeline welder and from older pipe welders? I’m going to share simple tips and best practices for each pass that are easy to do and make the world of difference.

Something that has always stuck with me since I was apprentice . My journeyman used to preach 5mins of prep saves you 5hrs of f’’’ing around ! Great video mr.Ross on the tips.

@robbert2308 3 месяца назад

So true

@Diesel67 2 года назад

That pushing the rod to side instead of pointing is the same thing I was told by the welder I helped for a few years. Great video Mr. Ross 👍🏼

@gega9979 2 года назад

Nice explanation of how to float a root in. I’ve been waiting for someone to pull me up on this style of rooting. Thanks.

@kevinkelly5430 2 года назад

My first job as a helper the welder I was helping busted my butt for weeks till I could run bead's. He gave me solid advice like your giving. He also said that being able to put in a bead is like learning to walk before you can run.

@johnlowe2943 2 года назад

I always liked my whip with air-cooled Tig torch line. Really help reduce the amount of fatigue on your arms when your working 7/12 for a few months. I rember dragging alot of jobs just because of small things when the economy was good and companies were paying 1000 bucks to pass a combo weld test and travel pay I dunno if that still goes on I've been retired since 2013. Secret to working shutdowns and pipeline jobs you gotta have a good contact list and you have to have a good reputation as a welder. My phone used to ring all day with offers from other companies.

@cranerigging3604 2 года назад

Great points Austin ! I had a similar experience at my first job . Picked up a lot of tricks and ideas from the shop owner in the 4 years I worked for him . Looking back I should have been paying him on the hour for the education . Keep up the great work !

@arosswelding 2 года назад

I feel the same way! The older I get the more I don’t take education for granted.

Thanks for sharing Austin, stay safe and keep up the good videos. Fred.

@jmfarms3555 2 года назад

I honestly think there should be more welding videos like this where they show the hand and arm movements and not the puddle. Too many new welders don't understand exactly how to minuliplate the body to make the good welds.

@morganweller1491 2 года назад

Agreed it's all about positioning and hand manipulation seeing the puddle is good to but these type of video's will help newbies way more

@RinkyRoo2021 Год назад

it's really helpful that you can learn stuff like this off the internet, I took a pipe welding class once and the guy was a real weirdo who never showed tricks like this .

@andrewmckeown6721 2 года назад

Good explanation Austin, spot on, I call it welding light and tight, So not forcing the rod and keeping that arc in close.

@glenngosline1710 2 года назад

Something I was taught also about running beads at least from say 3 o'clock on down. If the bead is grey in color with no lite slab coating can almost bet there is internal undercut. If the bead is shiny good chance no internal undercut.

@Ilovesports977 2 года назад

I appreciate the advice Austin. I’ve been watching you for a couple of years and would love to get involved in the pipeline soon. If at all possible meet you in person and learn from the master.

@ronfussell8244 2 года назад

Hey Austin, been awhile,best education you can get is from an old Hand that's burned pallets of rod,my first job was with a small contractor that didn't have bevel machines,had some old clamps and that was it,an old hand around 55 seen how nervous I was and changed everything for me,priceless learning,beveling with a 000 tip,no grinding a ballpeen and an 18" half round, on a 250 wall 12 in,I was good with a torch so that helped,where to set the line back,cut it,pound it square,file it,wedge it and go,that was 74,after that job I had confidence to go anywhere, so teaching them not to fear it,just watch and learn burn the hell out of a lot of rod,I still have my original pipeliner.

@jamescosta1174 Год назад

Love the no fail caveman homade api bevels

@kevinsnow6591 2 года назад

awesome video more tips on real word bead running than I've ever seen thanks for taking time to teach these small things. I used to weld a lot of 4" .156 wall and the bead is everything don't push it will undercut the bead and on the bottom tack roll out of the bevel so you don't leave a big keyhole to try and tie into on the bottom when you come flying in and leave a suck back. light wall pipe will make or break you

Good tips thank you. Holding stinger lightly and pull up to help stop blowouts and push rod from side to side. I will never be a pipe line welder due to age however I do lots of welding on our farm equipment and these same tips will apply. Lots of different types of damage to implements as you drag them across the face of the earth.

How did you go from pipeline helper to welder and what do you need

@dangrimes5078 2 года назад

This is what I wanted to do when I was very young but the work was so spotty I had to switch trades. I still have great memories though. The Boiler makers union was a joke. I'd work for a few months then be laid off for 6 months. Finally I just couldn't go back any more. I really loved it while it lasted though.

@bartbley1269 2 года назад

On small inch light wall pipe you don't push the rod in the bevel to hard you let it kind of lightly sit on the pipe bevel not straight in burning the edges off the bevel and incorporating the pipe parent metal into the bead . It's called skating them in . It is crazy fast . It is a way different feel , technique ,body position ,and touch . I was not a bead hand and the best ever I got was 50 joints of 3" .125 wall in an hour with 3/32" rod . Best bead hand I've ever followed one day got 56 joints of 4" .125 wall in 45 minutes 100% xray . hahaha wanted to prove a point and get into the bar early . There are 2 wall thicknesses smaller I experienced .109 wall and .083 wall . get it wrong here and it is a real wreck .

@peetky8645 2 года назад

hey BB. Hobby welder here... i have a question and would like your thoughts... i wanna make a 20x20 carport with 2x6 11ga (.120 wall) i need to weld butt joints at the tops of the trusses. would you bevel or just do a butt? gap? quick 3/32 6010 root with 7018 cap?

@johnlowe2943 2 года назад

@@peetky8645 I know u didn't ask me I used to work as a combo welder for alot of companies like foster wheeler, Zachary, Siemens ect.. for one of those carport project would probably be best to use 6013. Just make sure you don't run it cold so it will be easy to tell the molten slag from the weld puddle and you won't get holes in your weld 80-85 amps on a 3/32 6013 would probably be okay.

Penny thickness on the landing and penny on the gap. What amps are you using with the 1/8 6010? with those parameters?

@remdut4634 Год назад

Wondering if you use 7018 or 6010 on your root pass. Also, from personal experience, the prep of the wall thickness should be not less than 2 mm or 1/16 inch and gap of max 1/8 or 2.5mm, especially with 7018 rodes. What do you think?

You do need a diesel truck and machine( explosion hazard) those rods are 280 amp ( i believe) rags your machine, but whatever gets you in the door. I am most sure you will advance w/ your skills.
