Oxy/Fuel Welding Hose Comparison November 7th, 2009

In this video I am comparing the different types of Oxy/Fuel welding hoses. Have you noticed one has a “T” on the package and the other a “R”.  The reason for this is the different characteristics of Acetylene and LP gas (Propane and Mapp).  A rubber hose is used with acetylene because it won’t leak through or permeate rubber. Lp gas, however, will permeate rubber. This is why we use the grade “T” hose.  This is a neoprene hose , which has an oil resistant lining on the inside so the gases will not leak through or permeate the hoses. Please match the proper hose with your fuel gas.

Welding Lenses and Cover Plates November 7th, 2009

Welding Cover Plates and Lenses. In this video I will do a comparison of the Polycarbonate lenses vs. The CR-39 lenses. I will demonstrate that the Polycarbonate which is impact resistant is the only lens I would use.

MetalWorks411-Cast Helix Welding Wire November 7th, 2009

One of the leading causes of feed problems and MIG tip wear while your welding, is improper Cast and Helix of your welding wire. In this video I will show you how to check for proper Cast and Helix.

GasMiser October 22nd, 2009

Save as much as 60% on your MIG Welding Shielding Gas with this revolutionary new product!
Since the invention of MIG Welding in the 50’s Welding Regulator /Flowmeter Manufacturers have built into their regulators  something called “Automatic Flow Compensation” (A.F.C.), typically at 50 P.S.I. This is to compensate for spatter build up in the nozzle and twisted torch hoses. GasMiser greatly reduces wasted gas expelled at the beginning of every weld — in other words, it regulates A.F.C.! It’s like getting a free tank of gas for every two that you buy.

Added Bonus !! This is a GREEN Product. If you are using CO2 or any mixes we are putting less CO2 in the Air!!

CK Gas Saver October 22nd, 2009

Save as much as 40% on your Argon gas with the new CK GasSaver.
These front end kits provide better gas shielding, than standard collet bodies on your TIG Torch, which saves on Tungsten life and your shielding Gas. The is literally as simple as your kitchen sink — If you remove the screen from your faucet there is no control of the flow — replace the screen and you have a nice, uniform, linear flow. Using the same principle, CK Gas Saver can reduce a 30CFH flow to 20 CFH (40%) and still provide proper gas coverage. If you do this with the standard collet bodies your gas coverage won’t be adequate. You still leave all your Pre and Post flow’s as is. If you’re an A.S.M.E . code shop , you will still have proper gas coverage to make your x-ray quality welds. What I like about this product is that you can buy kits and retrofit your 17, 18, 20 and 26 style torches. No need to buy the whole torch. With Argon at about $40-$50 a cylinder I think these kits which sell for approximately $12 are well worth the money.
