The Alarming Reality of Welding Fume Risks in Australia
The Australian welding workforce is apparently unaware or perhaps indifferent to the risks of welding fume. Are Kiwi welders as cavalier?
When Metal Cored Wire Outperforms Flux Cored Welding Wire
Beyond minimising hydrogen-related weld defects and reducing rework, seamless metal cored wires offer all the efficiency benefits of a quality metal wire.
Storage of Flux and Metal Cored Wires
Following the manufacturers’ guidelines on storage and handling of welding wire is important to keep them in a usable condition. We also cover general advice on storage of wire spools, wire packaging, and what to do with compromised wires.
Source Capture Fume Extraction Explained
Many weld fume extraction solutions are far from the source. Source capture fume extraction focuses on the most concentrated areas for greater impact.
Buyers Guide to Choosing a Welding Helmet
Choosing a welding helmet that suits the user improves safety, comfort and weld quality. The biggest gain will be a happier, more productive welder.
Combatting issues when welding in cold, damp conditions
Cold, damp atmosphere; cold, damp steel. Moisture is a warning sign for welders. Let's explore how to combat issues when welding in adverse conditions.
Revealed: Often Overlooked Fact when Reducing Welding Costs
The biggest cost in welding is the wage of the one holding the torch. Using their time efficiently is fundamental to minimising your operational costs.
