Burn the rivet heads off by placing the tip perpendicular to the rivet and not by trying to cut the rivet head off from the side as you will likely score and damage the […]
Advantages of Oxy-fuel Gas Cutting The advantages of oxy-fuel gas cutting include: Equipment is very portable and can be used in the field. Cutting direction can be changed rapidly on a small radius during operation. Large plates can be cut rapidly in place by moving the torch rather than the plate. Equipment costs are lower […]

It gives the torch tip access to deep-lying base metal, prepares a well-defined, uniform container for molten metal and ensures quality welds. Bevel angles and root openings are essential for adequate weld penetration in thick plates or pipes. The joint design must specify all relevant dimensions and […]
