What is a back purged weld?
Back purging typically takes place in tubular type welds, but can also be performed other ways on a variety of welds. Back purging involves flooding the inside of a tube with an inert gas, typically Argon, with a low flow rate. One end is usually plugged with a small outlet hole and the other has a feed tube. This removes the atmospheric air that can contaminate metals like Stainless Steel and Titanium. This prevents contamination and provides a cleaner and stronger weld.
Do you only do motorsports fabrication?
Not at all. While this may be our specialty and focus, we do much more. Having years of industrial, mechanical, and other work experience helps us to tackle most any request. We have experience with industrial shut downs, field repairs, hydraulics, electrical, rigging, millwright work, and more. There’s plenty of ways we can help with your project or needs, even if its a simple repair. Rest assured, we also know what we can’t do, and will always recommend the right person for a job.
Why can’t I see the roll cage quote page?
While that page used to be open to everyone, it is now locked. We are no longer taking on any and all roll cage work at this time.
What types of work don’t you do?
We don’t do any work that is clearly dangerous, hack work, or rushed. To clarify, we will work hard to get a job done in a timely manner, as well as on a tight schedule. We will NOT make an attempt to complete a 3 day job in a single day. Rushing like that leads to mistakes or overlooked details. That’s just not up to our standards. We will also not do any work that is clearly a hack job or dangerous. That means we wont come out and “throw a quick patch” on your rusty truck frame. We also won’t “just weld it” so you can appear to pass tech somewhere. That’s just plain unacceptable. We’ll do our best to accommodate you or even help you get a vehicle home, but we will NOT put anyone, including ourselves, in danger. Besides that, we’re open to anything, especially challenges.
