Carbon 10" Pipe TIG Welding Root Pass !

- Tig welding root pass on 10-inch carbon pipe. Field weld TIG techniques! This video is about the combination of the tig welding techniques, such as; the constant feed technique, and dipping method on the root, hot pass, and cover pass or cap. The welding technique used will depend on the thickness of the pipe. You can either free-hand or walk the cup on a thin wall pipe. This is because you will have a shallow bevel that you can walk on with the cup. If it is a heavy wall pipe you will want a cup size that is small enough to fit between the groves and slide easily. The video gives viewers good insights into placing excellent and solid root passes. You will get to learn about different technical paths that you can explore. With the appropriate training and practice on the operator's part, learning to place the root can become an invaluable skill!

One of the best if not the best channel for info and tutorials thank you.
Glad you think so!
Good video I'm a combo welder in Texas
Thanks bro!!😎
Great insight in all steps: edge prep, root and fill pases. Also overcoming field obstacles such as vents, wind from fans, and tethering belts.
To me theese videos are of great value. Like i was there on the job sight.
Thanks so much for sharing 🙏 💥 👌
Thanks man!😎
So much satisfaction for a welder to see good root)
Thanks!
Hvala ti buraz, puno mi ovo znaci!!😎👍

You are a beast bro perfect job is a joy to watch and learn from you thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Amazing work! You make look so easy and effortless, I guess practice and experience does make perfect. Thank you for the wind/lighter trick I've never seen it before, I'm gonna carry one with me now, scattered porosity sure is no joke.
Thank you very much my friend! 👍
Как бы я хотел так уметь варить как ты. Спасибо за видео тебе.
Another great video! You are the best of the best man, the GOAT!!! 👍🏽🙌🏽🔥
That’s a big words my friend, I really appreciate that brother 🙏
Im a welder, and i still come to watch your videos for improvements. Amazing work.
Thank you brother 👊
Another excellent video from the master. Do you have a favorite lens brand? Is there anything that helps you see better? Thanks again. The grasshopper to the Master. Sparky
Thanks bud, sometimes I’m using Optrel brand, but generally just regular lenses. So far no issues with my eyes 👀, fingers crossed hopefully it will stay like that for a while!
That was one of the best videos I've seen so far in field experience I've learned more from this than the other videos 👍
Beautiful, quality workmanship. I enjoy watching fellow tradesmen whom love their work as much as I.
Keep up the great tutorials and videos.
Cheers
Neil
Thank you my friend I appreciate that 👍
I learn more for you.thanks a lot sir❤
Combo here. About 15 yrs exp. 2 questions, number 1 how do you get such good arc shots especially by yourself lol. Number 2, how are you sneaky enough to not get caught filming? Im at a methanol plant in Louisiana and man they are crazy strick with phones. Especially photos and whatnot of any piping systems or vessels.
Hi man!! As you said, I have to be sneaky enough to not get caught😉
Great videos from a strong 488 hand 👊
Thanks brother 👊
Awesome work brother👍
Thanks ✌️
Looks good bro
That is so beautiful and precise thank you brother!
Glad you liked it!
Отличное видео и пояснения. Спасибо!
Thanks a lot sir.
Excellent root , fill and cap. Do you have any video footage of doing titanium pipe welding?
Thanks bud, unfortunately, don't have any at the moment!
Good job sir
Simplemente excelente
Hi mate, as always good video. My question is, how many weld joints u are able to do in one shift? Is it 250 or 300 mm pipe diameter? I like to watch how do you weld, im welding as well, but always love to see how someone else is welding.
Hey bud thanks for your comment! I can do two 10 inches or 250 mm , butt welds in position if I want to per shift.
Nice
How do you get yourself to relax that much? Your welding looks very good.
Tbh, I don’t even think about it. I guess it comes with the years of experience!
Kolay gelsin 🇹🇷
Nice work. Can you share what your camera set up is?
Very nice root,and I know exactly what a little breeze will do. I've had to use 309 stainless to carbon to get the porosity out and it works.....
Hey sir as a 2nd year I was always told that if you have the ability to tie in perfectly then you dont need to worry about stopping too much. Obviously a seasoned pipe welder usually can run from 6-12 no problem. But I was wondering if thats kind of a myth?
Would like a SS sch10. 3" or 4" video. Thx
Please I'm from Nigeria I'm a welder combination welder but still want to learn more because I'm not that perfect yet
No one is perfect my friend, but requires a lot of practice to become good at it!
any recommendations for a 2 inch carbon steel
How long takes to make that weld from root to cap?
10 hours shift, fit up and welding.
Since you had a pretty inconsistent gap, I was wondering if you could do 5/32 laywire in the spots you had a 5/32 gap? Also what heat would you run that on for the 5/32 lay wire or would it be best to do the dip technique
Hey bud, yes you could. I would prefer to use 5/32 rod on 1/8 gap instead, as I will crank up the amps and push that rod inside the root with laywire technique. Probably around 140-150 amps.
How could you control this? If i put 120 amps its burning like hell
I’ve been practicing back feeding but I’m having a lot of trouble. The inside of the pipe looks decent, but the weld on the outside of the pipe on the overhead section is very droopy. Any suggestions?
I've found that happens when you're running a bit hot or sitting in one spot too long. Try turning down 5-10amps so it allows you to catch up with your wire if you're not comfortable with traveling faster. You really wanna make sure you're pointing at the bevels instead of right in the center. I had to mess around with a lot of things to finally get less suck back on mine aswell just takes practice👍
Lower your amps,you're burning the edges.
cleon135
Thank you for taking the time to reply. I greatly appreciate that. I tried turning down the amps and it actually made the humping worse on the outside. When I ran it hotter, it laid a bit flatter. I think that I’m not traveling fast enough bevel to bevel? Also, what angle should I hold the filler metal at? I’m holding it straight down through the top of the pipe as I weld the bottom
@@shawnramey614 Hold your filler wire between the gap,and try backfeed. It will be easy if you walk the cup,bottom part of the pipe; push more rod, try like back feed technique. On the side wall or 9 o’clock speed up or pull rod slightly outside the bevel, and on the top part; speed up, keep rod above that bevel edge, gravity will push that puddle down.

Thank you so much for the tips! I believe that’s what I’m doing wrong as I’m backfeeding, I’m not pushing the wire slightly outside the bevel, I’ve been keeping it fully on the inside!
❤❤❤❤❤
What means tie-inn?
Tie in, where you connect your root pass.
PLEASE PLEASE can we see you body positioning where you place your arms where your leaning your body weight
Crouching or kneeling !??!?
Maybe in the next video, I’ll show some examples
bon traveil
Please, someone tell me, how do I get a good root penetration on my TIG root pass? I wiggle the cup very nicely but can't get a good penetration. Please how do I get a good penetration on my root pass? Thanks 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hey bud, that’s something you have to discover by yourself. Videos can help you to understand basics, but you need to experiment what’s working best and improve in that direction. Could be lots of factors, like; inclination, amperage, travel speed, gap, etc. Prepare few pipes with different gap size, and see would it work better. When I started with welding I was making notes of what’s working and what not!
Thanks a lot sir. I appreciate. Will work on that

Nice
