WELDING

In the past, there was generally no mention of any specific welding procedures on prints or purchase orders. This was largely due to the fact that it was a foregone conclusion that when pickled pipe was welded, the weld joint area would form a layer of scale. Using REDOX components and welding procedures can eliminate this problem.

Our welding procedures are designed to not only prevent the formation of scale on the I.D. of the pipe, but to enhance the general cleanliness of the system. It is therefore important that the welding procedures be called out in the Note section of the prints.

Figure 1 compared with Figure 2 shows the dramatic reduction in weld scale that can be realized by specifying REDOX pipe and components for your system. By not building contamination into your system, you can expect a quicker and more thorough flush.
