Skillfully Handling Basic And Advanced Pipe Welding Positions
We’re recognised experts in steel pipe welding across Melbourne, offering precise and reliable services in mild and stainless steel. Our skilled team, including certified boilermakers and ticketed welders, masters various key welding positions essential for high-quality outcomes:
-1G (Horizontal Rolled Position): Ideal for basic flat welds, this position allows the pipe to rotate horizontally, simplifying access for top surface welding.
-2G (Vertical Position): In this setup, the vertical pipe may rotate, facilitating side surface welding in a horizontal direction—perfect for vertical seams.
-5G (Horizontal Fixed Position): The pipe remains static, challenging the welder to manoeuvre vertically around its circumference, ensuring thorough welds without rotation.
-6G (Inclined Position): As the most advanced position, the pipe tilts at a 45° angle, demanding high skill levels as welders adjust to its complex orientation for comprehensive coverage.
Our commitment to stringent quality standards and utilising the latest techniques in metal fabrication and welding ensures that every joint is efficient and defect-free, tailored to diverse industrial applications. Trust Mechcon for superior craftsmanship in every weld.
