Please do more pipe fabrication and fitting videos. Its really helpful for me.
It's a good refresher if you don't do much of this at work.
How much money can a pipe fitter earn
@@abenzenjoyment3183 depends where you are and what company, where I'm at they make 34 hr and 100 perdiem every day, but work 6 days out of the week 10 hour shifts, 20 hours OT plus 600 perdiem for the 6 days.

Totally awesome fit up..... More please.
I've been a wood worker for 40 years and just came across your channel. This is like discovering a new planet for me. Really well done. Much respect.
Hi man. People assume pipe fitting is easy. Mostly it's confused with plumbing
1988/89 l done my Pipe Fabricator trade test...back then no you tube!
So this is a great help for rookies🙂.
I gave it up in 1994 went back to Technical college.
Now l work in a design office as a Piping and Layout Draughtsman,Generating Piping General Arrangements,P&IDs,Isometric drawings etc.
I still started on the Drawing board,now l work with AutoCAD. Better €$£ 💘😎
Great video and very informative. As a retired pipefitter and Welder of 28yrs hats off to you guys.
Excellent video, all these techniques I used, so I know you definitely know what you're doing. Also this video shows how important it is to have a great fitter and welder relationship
Heck yeah, this videos right here is what y’all need to upload. So much knowledge that it make pipe fitting wayyyy more interesting.
Hi guys! Greetings from Russia! I'm the one of thoses who makes these ISOs and I'm exited of looking you doing your job. Could not stop watching. Always interesting in shop and field activities. You doing great job! Thanx
This is Kimchi Welder who is uploading welding video in Canada. The pipe fitting video you uploaded is very helpful. Thank you.
👏👏
Currently learning how to fit pipe, the more I learn and practice, the more Im loving it. My instructors make us fit pipe and also tack it, learning from these old timers who have been fitting for 25+ years is something else.
Absolutely the best proper training I have seen yet, even the level compensation teaching is something no one, and I mean NO ONE takes time to do. I'm SUBSCRIBED!
That fitter needs to go back to school
thank you guys for putting these vids up its really helped an inspiring pipe fitter to understand the basics and helpfull tips for the feild or fab shop
Straight out of welding school, passed my first bend test and was offered a 1st Welder position. I've got 1 week to cram before my first day on the job. This video has got me pumped to work with fitters and start welding like Victor.
Bro you guys are very professional, especially Marvin he speaks very well and explains in detail. I am a metal fabricator but planning on moving forward and learning new things, I recently applied for a position of pipe fitter helper, it would be an honor and great learning experience if I ever work with people like you guys, thanks for the video.
They probably are nothing like that in real life honestly i know theyre not based off every welder and fitter ive worked with being in the union
Best video for basic pipe fitting I've seen! Well done guys!
Except for the fact he thinks it’s a razor face, and how he has his welder tack the wrong side of the flange…
@@frankie9660 I noticed that too. And who builds carbon steel pipe assemblies with Tig? Ain't nobody got time for that. Bro needs to bust out with some .045 fluxcore. lol
That last tac at 7 " shoulder tacked on other side. But very good job and info on pipe work. Thanks
lol I was just thinkin that
Yeah I seen that also
Jackson yea,you know what I hate is when I'm laying something out using the one inch Mark and make my part of parts forgetting to drop and inch. Done that a few times for sure
His welder should have called him out happens to the best of fitters
i think bro is kinda nervous being on camera and all haha
I love pipe fitting...a very logical process. Great video!
He tacked the flange on the inside, should have been the outside ... no roll out welds? and it’s a raised face not razorfaced . They bolt up ,they aren’t “welded “ to pumps or other flanges .
That pipe fighter would have to weld too . He'd work a welder like dumbass Victor to death. My grandma could fit better than that she was blind in one eye and couldn't see how the other
I'm not a pipe welder/fitter just a shop/field welder but this is the best group of people on RUclips period! I look forward to every new video.
A shop / field welder? Lol where im from those are 2 polar opposites
Field welders are good in every position angle and weld in many bad uncomfortable areas where as shop welders either weld in jack stands or use a roller lol which takes alot less skill
I'm a class 1 welder in the UK and pipe fitter. The way you fab this is so much more detailed than what we would do. I've never used a square to level a bend for instance 🤣 (we just level the face of the bend to the pipe) bit I like the square technique.
@Will Swift in the UK?
Thanks for this step by step video. Loved the methodology
Great knowledge shared your jargons aligned with the task. Good Job!!!!
Nicely done. Knowing your welder certainly helps.
I just want to thank you as well as the other instructors in these videos for what you all are doing and helping someone with a very rusty memory like mine who has been away from pipe fitting and the plant and refinery life. It's been 3 years since I've done that type of work because I've been doing Active Duty missions as a Reservist the whole time and shifted my focus. If I don't get selected for another Active Duty mission next go round, I'll be back doing that this type of work. So....I will definitely be watching more of y'all's training videos and taking notes and preparing. Again it's definitely appreciated!
Hell yeah! Having a good pipefitter makes all the difference on site. Especially for in-position welds 🤘🏻
Lol yes in the real world most welders wouldn't want to work with this guy
Damn bro I wouldn’t be bragging this guy kind of sucks by how he got the first 90 I saw he didn’t know what he was doing.
@@JavierAldoMacedo He says he has 10 years experience. Where I come from it looks like about a week and he doesn’t do it right. He also said flanges weld up to another piece of pipe🤣😂🥲
@@BDE360 exactly I wouldn’t wanna work with a fitter like that if i was the welder
Great video guys! Very helpful. Must be nice working in that shop where it’s tig all the way. I love tig.
Great videos guys, learning alot of different skills, thanks
Very nice presentation I've learned a lot keep on posting brother good job
Very good, especially that you showed it with the map, it was great, thank you
Man you’re good bro and so good with explanations. Thank you so much
Quite good knowledge,bring some more.very good practicals
I appreciate the thoroughness
Awesome job guys...keep up the good work
It's funny how this video came out today cause I'm learning pipefitting now and was looking all over the place yesterday for this information
Pro tip to find the take off for a long radius 90 if you don’t know already. Multiply your pipe diameter by 1.5. I’d recommend getting a pipe trade pro calculator as well. That thing has so many different functions on it.
this is where your browser coockies kick in.
Something is better than nothing, Thanks to the guys who share their experience and knowledge. Remember technology is always getting advance day by day.
Knowledge is power..make batagor so easy😂
You teached me really something useful for my career
Im a welder but it's good to know this stuff for real helps me a shit ton and the fitter.
Very well done indeed, great demonstration.
You are good at teaching my friend,so I want to learn and increase my knowledge as a pipe fitter,i learned a lot from your vlog and I'm also your subscriber from #🇵🇭
Excellent video ! Keep up the great work
Thank you Anthony Davis for this excellent video demonstration
Awesome video I'm 2 months in on Pipe fitting/tac welding I do both here in Alberta, Canada 🇨🇦 than after I check the overall I send the pipe to the welder. I'm learning on the job plus RUclips and Tic tok
This dope man. Ima watch this til I get it 💯💯
awesome job. i wish i was a little younger, and able to move like i used to. but i can still watch the videos.
Great video!!! I can tig-stick-fcaw pipe etc but I can't fit worth a damn!! I'm trying to get into an apprenticeship just to learn how to do this. thanks for sharing guys
Very good fabrication ,helpful
like the fact that you show everything. good work
Thats my boy Marvin , real Texas pipe fitter! 🤘
Except he dont know what a flange face is called lol razor face? Think he was thinking of a razor sharp bevel and face is raised face
Awesome video guys
Marvellous theoretical with practical
You are like car builders or notorcycles builders you love your work so i like yours content best regards
you guys r very professional tnks for yours videos i gonna star pipe fitter its good information for me tnks 👍👍
Awesome video!!!
Nice, sick video man very helpful
Congratulations You are really good. You are masters it is nice to take from you.
I don't know if its a loss in translation, but its called "Raised Face" flange not Razor face. As in, there is a "raised" ring around the inside, as opposed to a "Flat Face" flange.
The difference is that on things like pumps, strainers, valves, etc that are cast or made of a soft metal, the torque from bolts and the 1/4" gap on a raised face flange joint would bend and deform the flange, so flat faced flanges solve that problem.
The reason why every flange isn't flat faced though is that raised face flanges focus the torque on the bolts to the gasket area of the flange, ensuring a tighter seal.
Absolutely brilliant 👌🏻
At 7:24, you have really have to make sure that the long side of the square on the left is on contact with both walls of the elbow, otherwise, it doesn't give you any information (everything will always be square if there is no contact). Just like two points are always aligned, and three points are always co-planar
Looked at 7:24 and with my eyes it is touching both sides, just have to look real close with the video frozen.
Only thing I’ll say is at around 21 minutes I would’ve checked the vertical level in that flange and matched it with that other pup piece
Muy buenos el tubería y el soldador, saludos desde Valladolid España 👏👏
Awesome video
Very informative!
Thanks for your videos bro i learned a lot salute you bro.
buen trabajo limpio y preciso son buenos en lo que hacen buen trabajo melvin..cuidecen
y gracias ..
awesome video..more pipe fitting / fabrication videos
21:33 you say the measurements out loud but end up tacking the wrong side. Point being other 2 guys also heard the same information and didn't correct you, it's a good lesson for apprentices/ helpers/ welders to actively be helping and not go on auto pilot and just go with whatever it is the lead man says and to speak up when you think a mistake is made or you have a question. Also I'm not trying to give you shit cause we all fuck up but more for helpers to pay attention and have our backs. Keep up the good work
They were doing a good job showing how to read and lay out a run. They did not show having to grind out the tack at 21.33 if they did not catch their mistake before tacking it. You are right it should have been tacked on the other side first. Some welder and fitter that work shut downs at oil refineries travel in pairs because they know how to work together to get the work done. The powers to be at a oil refinery I worked at for 32 years decided to cut the fitters pay to save money. One welder/fitter team that worked our S/D for maybe 12 years along with other welder/fitters teams did not show up for the S/D. The S/D ran long and the powers to be could not understand why it ran long because of the piping crews fell behind??????? Good pipe welding and fitting teams can always find work, you don't screw with one or the others pay and expect to get production. Bean counters are a dime a dozen, always trying to cut someone else pay to make them look good. Then they decided to cut the pipe welders pay also. Then the shit really hit the fan, pipe welders that could not go without busting weld x-rays that meant we had to go back and x-ray every weld they made on the S/D plus clearing all workers out of the x-ray shots areas. we went from working two 12 hour shifts for everyone to working two 10 hour shifts to get all the extra x-rays in. You get what you pay for. Just glad I am retired now and don't have to answer to bean counters!!!
Been in Pipefitting for a year mainly doing Bolt up welders helper, Spark watch. But wanting to learn more and actually do well in my trade. I am currently in (CANADA) and would love to here some advice or books that I could get. Also love the tutorials/Help videos helps me out alot.
Dear wonderful .. great work.. good knowing
Good job brother please make more video for pipe fittings ❤️love from India
Good info premo love the smell of burning metal $$$$$
Super helpful video style
Yo quiero hacer eso, está bien rifadote, me gusta mucho la soldadura y estoy aprendiendo en la herrería de mi papá,. Sus videos me inspiran para seguir y estudiar eso jaja salu2
Nice job!
Please do more pipe basics fitting thank u with levels and plumb bobs u are very helpful thank u.
Este video está machin. Ya siento que puedo firiar solo de ver este video de tan buena calidad
After watching this I just bought a level and now I'm double checking everything. Now my tables square with the wall and leveled.
I’m a fitter and one of my good friends is my foreman a lot on jobs and when we got to a town we were working in last year we were kinda drunk cleaning out our toolboxes, and decided to check the level on all the stair rails and handrails, the floor of the hotel bedroom, inside cabinetry, walls ect! Lmao! Upstairs and downstairs bedrooms floors all were almost a whole bubble out slipping down to the door to go outside the motel. Our only hypothesis was that it did that if a sprinkler in the room went off because of fire, water would flow right out the door to outside (motel) instead of sitting still on bedroom floor and destroying floor beneath it or downstairs the walls around the room if it wasn’t sloped. Our drunk asses really thought we figured out some coool ass engineering shit that night all proud of ourselves! 🤦🏻♀️
Great Info!! Thanks WT
great tips brotha thanks a lot
Awesome guys! That's one expensive demo!!
Video is fuego bro
More videos like this great job.
Show de bola seus vídeos muito bem explicado!
La tuyauterie,un bon métier. Génial.
Where I'm from the welders are the fitters ,it's good to learn to fit .
Other welders come here and they are used to the fitters tacking everything up for them,they don't always make it.
Union Pipefitter/Welder Good Lessons Learned
I mean this is a good video but the easiest way to fit a 90 is definitely tacking the sides first and then squaring it but i guess it’s all preference. Love the videos!
Dat is awesome. Thanks, where I've been working companies now want a person to do 4 jobs n one. Like fabrication, fit, weld, and bolt up. Just 1dering if can do it by ur self
You can if you got the tools and equipment needed but ALOT HARDER by yourself sometimes impossible to fit and keep it fit while tacking
Good video 👍 very well explain
Man, I miss doing piping. Doing vessels now.
Its so ok. 👍👍🖐🖐. thank for vidio. My thank from Indonesia.
Nice one!
Awesome video, will you please show more of this stuff, it really intrigues me totally. Jim Tree.
Fitter gave his welder zero roll outs good job lmao
I wouldn’t say he missed that, I mean it is a vid on how to FIT a spool, we don’t need to see how to WELD out a soool do we?
Thanks for sharing with!
very helpful ,thanks
Great Job
Nice work
Its time for the pipefitters to shine ol' boy 😎
Nice... cant wait to come down for your pipe welding class. Pass my 3g open root and get in there...
Good 👌
If its for the hall its 6g
awesome guys!
I have always put on uniform lands and always fit high low to top of land . you can not fit to O.D. of pipe to O.D. of fitting because a lot of times fittings will not be the same O.D. as the pipe or maybe other fittings . Uniformity of land is key . In a production shop one would fit to roll out welds . You want to weld as few welds in position as possible . A good fitter and welder can make magic in a day
I needed something like this to improve my skills on the trade. They put me to fabricate on the shop but im not experience enough.
tq for your info very helpful 👍
