WHAT IS CERAMIC WELD BACKING?
Ceramic weld backing material is a form of temporary weld backing. It offers a number of advantages over other weld backing options. For example:
It allows fully penetrating welds to be created from one side of the joint in a single pass, which is ideal if the area around the joint is tight or blocked.
It minimizes/eliminates the need for grinding out or re-welding the weld root from the reverse side.
Together, these advantages can lead to improved operational efficiency and scalability.
HOW DO I SET UP CERAMIC WELD BACKING?
Ceramic weld backing is an excellent option for supporting and shielding molten metal during welding operations. However, it must be set up and used properly to work as intended.
The process for using ceramic weld backing is as follows:
Remove the ceramic weld backing from its packaging
Size the ceramic weld backing to fit the joint
Remove the backing film from the adhesive sections of the ceramic weld backing
Apply the ceramic weld backing to the center of the joint
Create the weld on the front side of the joint
Allow the gas to disperse fully
Remove the slag
Remove the ceramic weld backing
