Fusion Welding Schedule 10 304 Stainless Steel Requires Skill and Focus
One of my clients secured a larger shop and is in the process of moving his equipment to the new location. This doesn’t stop the need to stay on track on current projects.
This job is over 4,000 ft. of various sizes of Schedule 10 304 stainless steel piping and fittings. Here I am doing 'Fusion Welding' where the joints are welded (fused) together without the use of adding filler rod. This requires carefully controlled conditions where the heat (amps) and speed (travel) must be in perfect balance to allow the arc to penetrate the two seams to form an internal bead without blowing a hole or causing the joint to suck back and become concave. A positioner helps to control the rotation speed. These are 2 ½” and 3” Tee fittings that get a 1 ½” threaded fitting attached to them.
As you can see, there is much to do here and a lot of focused, careful, and precise welding.

Welding Skills Brings Me A Fascinating Variety Of Jobs
This was a fascinating job for the San Jose Stormwater department. They have a lot of underground (30’-40’ below) stormwater separation screens to filter out the leaves, plastic, and silt from the stormwater going to the bay. From time to time, because of large debris and lack of maintenance, the screens get damaged and need to be repaired and/or replaced.
