Ensure Weld Purity and Strength

When TIG welding stainless steel, titanium, or other reactive metals, oxygen contamination can ruin the integrity and appearance of the weld. Pipe purging is the process of displacing oxygen from inside the pipe with an inert gas like argon. Our purging systems create a reliable seal, minimizing gas consumption and ensuring a clean, strong, and corrosion-resistant weld root.

Key Features & Types

• Inflatable Purge Dams: Reusable, heat-resistant bladders that create a fast and effective seal on either side of the weld zone, drastically reducing purge times and gas usage.
• Water-Soluble Film: A simple and cost-effective solution. The film and adhesive create a dam that dissolves completely with water or steam during the hydro-test, leaving no residue.
• Improved Weld Quality: Prevents oxidation and coking on the weld root, resulting in a clean, smooth, and structurally sound weld that passes inspection.
• Faster Set-Up Times: Our systems are designed for quick deployment and removal, saving valuable time on site.
• Essential for Critical Applications: A must-have for fabricators in the food & beverage, pharmaceutical, nuclear, and petrochemical industries.
