Welding Tips and Tricks

5" sch 80 6g / 2" ??? "thickwall" 6g tests

I will be taking tests on these Monday at 7am.. 5" is tig root, hotpass, then 7018 filler and cap.. 2" is tig all the way out.. These coupons will be xrayed.. How should i run the 2"?? Any pointers or tips on these I would appreciate. The tests are for a job in Pascagoula, MS @ Chevron Refinery "LNG" project.. Anyone wanting information on this job they are still hiring combo welders.. You will need to goto Mobile, AL to apply @ adress and name below. Job is paying 26.50/hr if you pass both tests 25.00/hr if you only pass 1..

The welds are tested by bending test strips. Brush and file consistently in the 2" to keep it CLEAN. Do not overheat the pipe. Make sure you can hold your hand next to it. You will have 3 hours to complete each test after you have tacked them and showed it to the Q/C that you are ready.
