Ensuring that the stainless steel tubes and pipes are welded without oxidation, which leads to loss of corrosion resistance, it is vital in industries such as oil and gas, nuclear, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, semiconductor and dairy that in order to achieve a perfect zero color weld, the oxygen level must be purged down to lower than 100 ppm before and during welding.
Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT, Weld Purge Specialists, have a range of Weld Purging Systems designed to achieve the perfect weld for every application. The Pipestoppers® Division at HFT® manufactures a range of white Nylon Weld Purge Plugs⢠that are clean and suitable for weld purging of tubes and pipes up to 6â? diameter.
Georgia Gascoyne, CEO at Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® said: âThe Nylon Weld Purge Plugs⢠are made from engineering quality nylon 6 in a range of sizes from 0.5â? (12 mm) up to 6â? (150 mm). They are manufactured with a standard seal made from natural rubber and for special applications seals made of silicone, nitrile and viton rubbers are available.â?
These low cost, lightweight plugs are available individually or in Kits to suit Domestic Plumbers, Automotive Radiator Repair Shops and Pool and Spa Maintenance Teams.
