PROCEDIMENTO DI SALDATURA CIRCONFERENZIALE DI TUBI METALLICI PARTICOLARMENTE PER OLEODOTTI, GASDOTTI, ACQUEDOTTI, ECC..

摘要

A method for girth welding of metallic pipes consists in beveling one pipe end in order that, when it is aligned with an identically beveled pipe end on another pipe, results in a bevel of a “cruet” design with a rounded bottom part larger than an upper part with parallel walls. The diameter of the welding wire used for the welding method is within 1.2 and 1.4 mm and the wire contains low levels of impurity including sulfur and phosphorus. The welding technique used is a “strip” technique which does not provide employ weaving or oscillation of the welding torch.
