Re: Motion for the 6010 pipe root?

I'm no expert, but from what I've seen most people, with the right root and landing, crank up the heat and shove it in and drag. This is a good one for Otto Nobedder, cause I've read some of his posts and thats what he does. Check out FieldRes on YouTube and xAZAZELx13 as well, both show down hand ...

Re: What is your preferred TIG Welder brand,model?

Well this might not help but if you have a big arc welder like a 300+ you could get some tig leads an argon, then put the tig lead on the positive and switch it to DC-. That's what I do.

Re: 6g SMAW Test

A hot pass generally doesn't mean your temp has to be higher....it's called that because it needs to be a good solid bead.

Re: Pipeline Questions!

The term downhand refers to the direction of travel and falls under the API 1104 code. 6010 is the most common rod for downhilling pipe but you might see 70+ or 80+ for the root or as most pipeliners call it the bead. You will need to know how to run 6010 and 7018 up on an Arkansas bellhole test(6G...
