Students will learn how to run basic welding beads, walk the cup, freehand technique, fit and prepare pipe bevels, and burn electro rods (ER70S-6 OR ER70S-2). Students will also learn to identify and fix any troubleshoot problems that can or may occur. Finally, student will als:so be thought proper cleaning methods and techniques on the welds that will be executed. 

05 PIPE-GTAW- Horizontal 1G Roll Out 

Lec 5 hours/ Lab 20 hours 

Prerequisite: pass the visual test of course, 05 Pipe GTAW- Intro. 

At this stage students will be welding on a pipe at a 1G horizontal roll out position. Students will learn proper back feeding techniques along with welding a proper root pass. Student will then be shown how to: weld a hot pass, weld multi passes, and weld the cap process. 

05 PIPE-GTAW- 6G Position 

Lec 5 hours/ Lab 20 hours Prerequisites: pass the visual test of courses, 05 Pipe GTAW- Intro and horizontal 1G roll out. Page 18 of 42 6G Position consist of welding in a fixed 45-degree position. Student will learn: to weld a root pass in the fixed 6G position, weld a hot pass in 6G position, Weld filler passes in 6 position, and weld the cap process on a 6G position. 

05 PIPE-GTAW- 5&2G Position 

Lec 5 hours/ Lab 20 hours 

Prerequisites: pass the visual test of courses, 05 Pipe GTAW- Intro, horizontal 1G roll out, and 6G position. In 5&2G position students will learn: how to weld individual root passes in 5G and 2G, weld a hot pass on a 5G and 2G position, weld filler passes on a 5G & 2G position, and learn the cap process on individual fixed positions of 5G &2G.

05 PIPE-GTAW- Test on pipe in all Positions

 Lab 20 hours 

Prerequisites: pass the visual test of courses, 05 Pipe GTAW- Intro, horizontal 1G roll out, 6G and 5&2G positions. Test will be a 2-inch pipe Heavy wall (XL) Tig with ER70S6 all the way out. Once the student is done with test, we will cut straps at 6 o’clock, 12 o’clock, 3 o’clock, & 9 o’clock and bend straps to see test results.
