Use Backing Tape™ for Perfect Weld Underbeads

When welding sheets, pipes, tanks and other vessels made from metals such as stainless, carbon, duplex and chrome steels, it is important to support weld roots and provide even profiles. As an international leader and manufacturer of weld purging technology, Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® have extended their range of purging products and are providing an economical Weld Backing Tape™ for the backing of welds, where purging is required but neither easily achieved nor economically viable. Georgia Gascoyne, CEO for HFT® said: “With the use of this relatively low cost Weld Backing Tape™, welding speeds can be increased and will result in neat, clean welds that will require minimal post weld attention. The cost of the HFT® Backing Tape™ is paid for on each weld by dramatically reducing welding time and cleaning.”
