The oxy-acetylene welding process involves using a torch to mix oxygen and acetylene gases in a controlled manner to generate a high-temperature flame. The flame is then directed onto the metal workpiece to melt it, while a filler rod can be added if necessary to create a weld joint. Proper safety measures, such as wearing protective gear and ensuring proper ventilation, should be followed when using oxy-acetylene equipment.
What else can I help you with?
What are two gases used in oxy-acetylene welding?
You answered your own question. Oxygen and Acetylene. Other mixes are now used in place of Acetylene so the process is now called Oxy-Fuel.
What is the difference between oxy-acet welding and lpg welding?
The Oxy-acetylene flame is much hotter and the preferred combination for the welder especially when welding pipe and plate metal. Somewhat of a rare welding procedure in modern times. Replaced by arc welding. Liquid Propane Gas burns cooler and is preferred by employers as it is cheaper. Not bad results on light gauge material, again takes longer to heat up. -RedSeal Welder
What is the flame commonly used in gas welding?
Oxy-Acetylene. A mixture of oxygen and acetylene. Commerically it is still acetylene, however, its chemical name is 'ethyne'. Its structure is 'H-C///C-H'. NB The symbol '///' repreent a triple bond between the two carbons.
How do you put acetylene in a sentence with at least 10 words?
Many welders still prefer to mix oxygen and acetylene gases when performing a weld.
Which of the fuels used in the oxy-fuel process becomes unstable if stored or used above 15 per square inch?
Oxy-fuel cutting uses acetylene and oxygen to preheat metal to red hot and then uses pure oxygen to burn away the preheated metal. Acetylene, which is used in the oxy-fuel process becomes extremely dangerous if it is used at pressures above 15 pounds per square inch.
Can LPG be used as alternative to oxy-acetelene?
LPG is liquid petroleum gas and oxy-acetylene is oxy fuel welding. The LPG can be used as an alternative to oxy-acetylene and is cheaper and can be purchased in bulk. The oxy-acetylene is best used when making shorter, thinner, and faster cuttings.
What are two gases used in oxy-acetylene welding?
You answered your own question. Oxygen and Acetylene. Other mixes are now used in place of Acetylene so the process is now called Oxy-Fuel.
What element is used to make oxy acetylene flames?
Oxygen and acetylene are used.
What flames produces maximum heat1 oxy- hydrogen 2 oxy-helium 3 oxy-methane 4 oxy- acetylene?
oxy-hydrogen
What color is acetylene hoses?
In normal usage in an oxy/acetylene cutting torch, the acetylene hose is red and the oxygen hose is green.
How do you do a chemical weld?
Oxy-acetylene is concidered a chemical weld.
Which came first MIG TIG or oxy accedoline welding?
Oxy-acetylene (notice the spelling) came first.
Which color hoses to be used in oxy acetylene flame cutting?
Red for the combustible gas (Acetylene - MAPP - Propane), green for the Oxygen. All Oxy-fuel torches use these hose colors.
What element is used in oxy-acetylene flame?
The element used in an oxy-acetylene flame is carbon. Acetylene gas acts as the fuel, while oxygen is used as the oxidizer in the flame. The high temperature resulting from the combustion of acetylene and oxygen produces a clean and precise flame that is commonly used in cutting and welding applications.
Can stainless steel be bored using oxy-acetylene?
Only by using special rods. Stainless doesn't mean it won't stain. Just that it doesn't Oxidize (rust). Oxy-Acetylene cuts by rapidly Oxidizing the metal.
What tool mixes gas and air to produce a hot flame?
oxy-acetylene torch
