Welding is a fabrication or sculptural process that joins materials and this includes all types of welding services in Wigan. The process is carried out by using fusion which is distinct from lower temperature metal joining techniques such as soldering or brazing which do not melt the base metal. In addition to melting the base metal a filler material is typically added to the joint to form a pool of molten material. This cools to form a joint that based on configuration can be stronger than the base metal. The Gas Tungsten Arc Welding process is widely used today to weld aluminium. Some of the highest quality welds used in critical applications such as full penetration pipe weld on cryogenic pressure vessels are almost exclusively made with this welding process.
If you need a secure weld done expertly then come to us. In Wigan, welding services are one of our many specialities. There is also another method of welding aluminium and this is the gas metal arc welding process. This is a far quicker process that is used to weld thicker sections. Care needs to be taken when welding thin sections of aluminium as a hole can easily be burnt through a thin section unless it is done by an experienced welder. Our welders are among the best qualified and experienced anywhere. Welding is an art form and takes many years to learn the different metals and techniques.
