HEAT SOURCES:
Acetylene torch, neutral flame. TIG/MIG processes.
PROCEDURE:
Prepare V-groove of about 600 where the thickness is more than 5mm. Clean the joint thoroughly. Apply flux on the joint area. Use neutral flame. Preheat a broad area, then heat locally until flux melts. Apply the flux to the rod by dipping heated end into the flux and melt the rod into the joint.
CLEANING:
Remove flux residues mechanically or chemically (using 10% sulphuric acid) followed by rinsing in running water.
