Why is filet weld necessary while welding slip on flanges to a pipe end?

It is the only type of weld you can make to seal this type of joint. There are flange ends that can be welded onto pipe with a butt weld, but sockets and slip-ons must be fillet welded.

Difference between ERW and SAW welding?
SAW welding is a type of arc welding while ERW welding is spot or seam welding. SAW stand for submerged arc welding while ERW stands for electric resistance welding.
What is the difference between fusion welding an resistance welding?
Fusion welding is just any welding process which inhibites the phase trasition from solid to liquid and then back to solid state, while electric resistance welding is based on purely ohmic heating of the different parts, this heat will create fusion of the metal. So; Electric resistance welding can be said to be a type of fusion welding, but not the other way around.
Why is welding used?
When two pieces of metal are joined by welding they become one as if they were made that way. Welding replaced riveting and reduced the amount of metal used while producing a stronger joint.
Does lacquer coating on tinplate affect welding?
Yes. However, there are paints designed to be compatible with welding as they are designed to protect the surface of the plate from corrosion while in storage. In every code or specification, it is specifically stated that welding should be done on clean metal. Welding over paint is discouraged.
What is submerged arc welding?
Sub arc welding is a process in which the welding actually occurs while submerged under a layer of flux. Not only does this prevent oxygen from entering the weld and thus porosity, but it also keeps the dangerous arc from sputtering and spattering from the weld.
What is difference between weld neck flange and slip on weld flange?
http://www.tubecraftflange.com/products/slipon.htmTubeSlip-On Flanges are probably the most common type of flanges in the industry and are ideal for lower pressure applications. You do not have to specify the pipe schedule when using slip-on flanges due to the fact that its inside diameter is determined by the outside diameter of the pipe. This outside diameter of the pipe does not change for the different schedules. This often makes these easier to stock for vendors. Fabricators also like the fact that these flanges are slightly easier to align than weld neck flanges. They also are slightly easier to cut pipe to the proper length for. They can be used for high temperature and pressure applications but are not generally recommended as compared to other types of flanges. ASME B16.5 Code limits their usage in the 1500#-2500# (lbs.) weight classes.

Which came first filet-o-fish or egg mcmuffin?
The Egg McMuffin was introduced first in 1972, while the Filet-O-Fish was introduced a few years later in 1965.
How can flanges be classified based on pipe attachment?
Flanges can be classified based on pipe attachment as slip-on, weld neck, socket weld, threaded, lap joint, and blind flanges. Slip-on flanges have a bore slightly larger than the outside diameter of the pipe, while weld neck flanges are designed to be welded to the pipe. Socket weld flanges are attached by inserting the pipe into the socket end, while threaded flanges have threaded connections. Lap joint flanges are often used with stub ends for easy alignment, and blind flanges are used to close off the end of a piping system.
Is it okay to use contact lens while welding?
you will be ok if you waer a welding mask
What are two gases used in oxy-acetylene welding?
Oxygen and acetylene gases are used in oxy-acetylene welding. Oxygen is essential for combustion, while acetylene provides the necessary heat for welding processes.
What is the difference between WPS and PQR?
WPS is welding procedure specification while PQR is procedure qualification records is all about welding and denotes design when it comes to WPS and Mechanical testing of the design when it comes to PQR. WPS is the design of welding joint, process of welding, welding position, steel shape and material symmetry, speed of welding, welding electrodes and filler and many more welding parameters while PQR is a complimentary to WPS. PQR will be the one to be tested mechanically and will finally validate if the WPS viable design of welding.
What is the difference between pressure and fusion welding?
Pressure welding uses pressure to create the bond between two materials, while fusion welding relies on melting the materials to create the bond. In pressure welding, the materials are pressed together under high pressure, while in fusion welding, the materials are melted together through the application of heat.

What is the difference between arc welding and resistance welding?
Arc welding uses an electric arc to melt and join metal pieces together, while resistance welding uses heat generated by the resistance to electric current flow between two metal pieces to join them together. Arc welding is more versatile and can be used for various types of metals, while resistance welding is more suited for high-speed production and is commonly used in automotive and appliance manufacturing.
Is mig welding a forge welding?
No, Forge welding is the simplest form of welding where two metals are heated to a state than can be forced to meld into each-other such as hammering or by other mechanical means such as a press. MIG Welding is short for Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW). This is a process which uses electricity to melt the parent metal and the electrode (wire) while shielded by a inert gas to keep contamination's (our atmosphere (aka air)) out of the weld puddle. Forge welding uses brute force and heat to join metals while MIG welding uses electricity and a shielding gas.
