The Benefits of Consumable Insert Welding Rings
Consumable insert welding rings provide several advantages when creating solid and seamless weld joints with a smooth surface inside the joint. In addition, an unrestricted ID is essential for many applications. For decades, such consumable inserts have been used successfully across various industries, like steam generation, nuclear power, automotive, and more.
But what are the advantages that make consuming inserts so popular?
Strength and Seamless Joints
Consumable insert welding rings offer great strength to welded tubes, making them ideal for use in places where high stress or pressure is expected, such as off-shore oil platforms or shipbuilding/submarine applications. Additionally, the evenness of their surfaces results in a smooth finish on the inside of the weld joint that is highly desirable.
Cost-Effective Alternative
Consumable insert welding rings provide cost savings compared to other types of welding processes. One example is where one or multiple tube sheets are used in an application. Instead of cutting each hole individually with a plasma cutter, consumable insert welding rings can be inserted into pre-existing holes, thus reducing fabrication time and cost.
Durability and Versatility
Consumable insert welding rings are made from materials that resist corrosion and wear while remaining structurally sound during operation. Furthermore, they come in different shapes and sizes, making them suitable for nearly any application where strength is paramount and an unobstructed inner diameter is needed.
