Approved Materials

TIG process (manual and machine)

List of materials for which we have approved welding procedures with the TIG process:

  • 300 series stainless steels
  • Duplex and Super Duplex (includes comprehensive corrosion testing)
  • Nitronic 50/60/50HS
  • Inconel 625
  • Monel 400 and K500
  • Hastelloy C276 and C22
  • UNS 17400 martensitic steel
  • Carbon steel (includes fine grain and low temperature)
  • Dissimilar combinations of most of the above

Procedures qualified in other processes

  • MMA: 300 series stainless steels, Duplex, Nitronic, Monel, Hastelloy and carbon steel
  • Flux-cored MIG: 300 series stainless steels and Duplex
  • Metal-cored MIG: 300 series stainless steels, Nitronic, Monel, Hastelloy and carbon steel

Our welding procedures are not restricted to the above, as we also weld a number of other materials, including aluminium and copper alloys. We are prepared to qualify welders if a particular procedure is not available.
