I loved this test out of all the processes I’ve done, this one was relaxing for some reason. I don’t know if it was the sound or the smoothness of the welds after they were finished but it was my favorite.
Good job!🔥🔥
nice vertical flux-core👍👍
Nice work Abraham 👊👊
BIG THANKS AND APPRECIATES YOU MAN FOR THIS WELDING TEST VIDEO 💯 👍
Very few people mention to preheat the test plate before welding or not to let the plate get too hot between passes.
I aired it out to about 300f-400f with the gouger line when I took my test
You only preheat metal that is 3/4 inch thick and above. 1/2inch no pre heat needed. If you do you gonna have it dripping down like hell
Yeah it's funny I work in the nuclear world where we test out 1in plate and don't preheat it bfor test I don't know why but that's what the do but in the field you have to preheat anything 3/4 are better
Thanks buddy! Keep it up👍👍 much appreciated.
ONE OF THE BEST WELDING JOB I HAVE SEEN ,
you must be new
I got a weld test coming up these videos help
Could you guys do video on demagnetizing pipe or just steel in general for welding, thanks
Great video 👌
Don't take the test-welder's equipment for granted when you go in to test.
Nothing burns like getting halfway through your root pass to discover the guy before you plugged half the gas-ports in your diffuser with overhead BB's even though the tip and visible portion of the nozzle looked clean.
Always pull the nozzle off and make sure the diffuser ports are clean, and that your insulator is in good condition in addition to setting your contact-tip distance. A bad insulator makes putting in your first few passes on a 1" plate test feel like playing Operation, and you end up focusing on not brushing the faces of the bevel instead of watching your bead.
Did this on a miller that was only meant for mig, got it to work for flux core dual shielded but had to lower the amperage because it just was not working, melted the crap out of 3/8’s plate.
I learned alot thru this channel
Can you do a 6gr flux i would love it
Bruh hold up. Am I The only one who caught that abe is doing a duel shield process but selected the "Flux Core - No Gas" setting lol. Good welds either way brotha. thanks for the vid
No I was wondering where the “dualshield” came in ?
I scrolled until I found your comment. If you hadn't said it I would have.
Thanks Abraham, and what about Fcaw open Root on 2-3-4 G position, with root gap , also with and without ceramic in the back, is it possible?? Is it recommended? Thanks again Bro
Good job
Another hit 👍
Good job & nice smooth welding
I'm 6G welder Tig Mig Stick
Nice video Sir Technical
Also DON'T use "open ended" hand protectors, when doing overhead fluxcore. As the slag falling off will get caught in the open end. Use closed ended "mit" type protection.
Very good 👍
MTS 275 EVERLAST big mach. with a small price they kill it with all the fixtures they put it on burn back and inductance very handy
Is that ostrich skin on the face shield? Luxury! 👑
I preheat 1/2" & above after im all tacked up & set to weld. You dont have to heat it blazing hot but what you want to do is "sweat the iron" meaning you can be in a 115 degree test shop & if you preheat it, i guarantee you will see moisture bleeding out of the plate. What this does is not only help eliminate Non fusion but help the metal filler bond better with the parent metal. When I test on heavy plate or pipe i normally will use a temp stick but you can cheat by when the iron starts smoking or if your testing out on tool steel material it will change colors.Another thing your pre heating for is to avoid "Nickel Inclusions". On a break test they will show up when the parent metal & the filler material are not hot enough to blend in. Always try to run as hot as you can hancle it without blowing "buck shot" everywheres or putting most of your filler metal on the floor instead of your test. Best things most times is following the WPS. I've tested out on jobs where they're so nit picky about heat input that a inspector will shoot your test specimen with a gun after every pass. They will give you a tolerance but most times its not very much. Also don't try to "hog" the iron in, run as many multiple passes in as possiable. Hogging in the iron will alot of times guarantee you to trap slag. Preheat, run as many multiple passes as you can or allowed to do, keep it clean & be courteous to the inspector or the Q.C. They can make or break you on a test for the simplest mistake that is actually passable but still gives them the right to bust you.
Nice bro very good. Job.
Good vídeo
Could you do a 2g horizontal weld test with a backing strip from start to end?
I have a video 2g..if you like?
Backing strip is will be welded also to the test plate itself or not? Because if pass the root i think it will be welded also..
Anyone can explain? Thankz
Great👍👍👍 mate
You should have a video with proper grinding of undercut and clean up in between welds nice vidieo
At the welding school i go too they dont allow weaving with fluxcore just straight stringer beads
tanks my frends
Where can I buy a heat pad like what you show in the video?
Try using Lincoln NR 232 .068-.072 wire. Use a Lincoln ln-25 box. No gas.
Nice..!!
Good job...
I like this chanel....!!!
Alright 😎😎👌
Everlast😎😎👌
I know that for the root pass the wire speed and volts should be on the higher side for better penetration and because the plate is cold. But as the passes stack, are the settings changed? Is there any benefit to lower wft and volts? Or to keep the same?
If the heat feels like its starting to get too hot. Most times i just run the same settings the full way through. Maybe just a 0.2 of a volt every two or three passes.
Where do you get the heat proof arm shield
I may have missed it, but what diameter wire were you running. Great vid. Thanks!!!
Oh foe five
Awesome...
How much voltase and ampere do you used and how many gas level do you use ?thanks before.
From indonesia
Awesome
I like this vidio mr... from indonesia
Muchas gracias 🙏🙏👌🙏
Alguém no brasil sabe onde comprar esse "Heat Pad" Esse protetor para o calor n mão?
Any suggestions for 3g Fluxcore open root going uphill?
hi bro.
what is the best mig setting for 1.6mm tubing steel
Good
Nice
Your title says dual shield . What gas were you using with you flux core wire? 75/25 ?
Nice video / canyou make 2G butt joint on the ame welding FLUXCORE
Thank you
Why is it so difficult to lay in a smooth root pass on the 1inch plate?
I love slag peel. What wire are you using? I never get slag peel with flux core, nr 211 mp e71t-11, also holbart b21. I usually use .035.
Richard, it's a bit confusing because he is not running gas-less flux cored wire like the one you are using. Most of these videos on WeldTube they use gas-shielded flux cored wire. These are E71T-1C or E71T-1C/1M. 1C = 100% CO2 shielding. 1C/1M = 100% CO2 or C25 gas shielding. It is a completely different animal than gas-less flux cored wire.
@@zod-engineering-welding yea my confusion around 3:00 while he was setting up machine. It was indcating flux core/no gas. I guess i hadnt paid attention to complete title. I did see near the end of video that it was a duel sheild.
It was a great video, worth watching entirerly.
I’ve got a test tomorrow flux all the way out, no backing plate 1/8” gap 3/4” plate.
Is their a video out there for Aws D1.1
1" plate
3g?
It's the same thing just more passes.
You guys need to do a nr232 weld with a ln25 feeder
Agree with u...just stydents trying to impress. I ll be laughing..nr 232. 233...
Everlast 211si can i weld a 1” plate. ( i want to practice my 3g position) arc weld.
Great video Abraham, how do you like that MTS 275? That things a beast isn’t it?
Is the best you, by Welder from 🇮🇩🇮🇩 Indonesian
What wire size were you using?????
Whats up guys, love your content. Is it to much to ask how to regulate your flux machine? Like what to look for, what it should sound like, how much is to much when it comes to wire speed? I appreciate you all. Thank you!
Wire speed all depends on the type of wire you use, you can google the range and see what fits you. The best term I heard was that your weld should sound like crackling bacon
❤Good job sar ❤
What are the temperatures he used??
What tipe a wire do you use what Brend
Where can I get that arm pad?
Did he mention the size of wire he was using?
Parabéns chouuuuuu
Un maestro
Hey where i can find those hat you have?
How are you , what is the right way to weld with flux core wire its better dragin or pushing .. If u guys can help me
always drag Flux core
Another great video Abraham!
Is it better to get certified in stick welding or flux core ?
Do every test you feel comfortable trying... a Swiss army knife/ multi tool is valuable when you need it. BE A THAT kind of welder. You'll never go hungry dude.
I need a video that shows Flux Core 3G with no backing, if anyone knows of one.
I burnt through those plates like butter with those settings 😅
Let it cool down 6-8 minutes
Did you pass?
@Ivann27 350wire 28 volts
What kind of wire is that
Cool video Abe--Let me hook you up with a proper headband set,,,
@weldermadeheadbands
Sir from rootpass to capping only one setting of ampers and vlotage?
For the cap on flux core I turn my volts and wire speed down a little bit so I can get the cap a bit higher to meet the minimum tolerance.
What is the wire size and type
Ou uma legenda em português brasileiro. Obrigado.
What wire size??
When you have welded for 45 yrs. You tend to get certified in a lot of different metals such as aluminum stainless steel alloy 360 Encinal and chromoly. . I have put in 20 years of offshore welding with stick Rod 7018 filler on pipes for flow lines and use 6010 to put the beads in the root pass. Also use mig wire TIG welding in flux core. Yes I am a old timer ✌♾️💯
I never removed the slag when welding the cap pass.. too many bbs gets on the cap...stays cleaner..never had a problem..11 yrs
@@Ivann27 I can't remember...it's been 15 years since I welded....I think it maybe 95 or so..we had miller roller suitcase welders on the shipyard and drilling rigs production yards.....it had 1 thru 10 on the dials..like a 8 what I remember.......could be wrong..I retired from welding in 09....been in a nice factory since then...I adjust according to how the weld sounded and looked as I went..welding with one hand and adjusting knob with the other
Can you guys do fluxcore same process but without a backing strip? I had to take a test 1/8 gap without back strip, but blew it on the root was my first time taking a test like that. Fluxcore all the way 3g
Thanks guys
hello how are you
I agree I have that exam tomorrow morning and would love a demo on it
Help me to know issually Current please
How much gas flow are you running? 25?
probably around 30cfh
Do you have to go uphill to pass this test or could you go downhill too?
Uphill always on flux.
You're so close you could lick the plate my guy
Terria que ter uma tradução pera português brasileiro.
hi Bro I am same working in dubai
Oh my God it's Abraham
Hard to believe that weld is stronger than the 3/4 inch plate.
3g p How many gaps in position
Volt a wire please for root a second pass
USA welder?
Abe: Flux Core gets Hot, wear a Heat Pad
Also Abe: Uses said heat pad to rest his arm on, Not to shield the heat… 🤦♂️😂🤣
My machine won't spark up on Flux mig
You mentioned weld procedures but didn't say anything about how they arrived at those procedures thorugh testing and manufacturers recommended parameters

I'm working on 3g Flux Core. The problem im having is that I keep blowing a hole on my backer bar. My setting are at 180/21. Can someone give me some tips? Thanks.
How thick is the backing strip? Could be your amperage is too high.
@@NoizyBearBearOfficial I believe its 1/4 inch. I'm using scraps from D1.1 test
@@goldeneagle_wld245 the school has the machines calibrated ever 6 month.
Try turning up your wire and heat a little. 23.3v and 225 wire speed. You could run your root hotter too if you can
