Types of Welding
There are a number of different methods of welding in existence today. These methods include MIG, TIG, Stick, Flux-Core, Torch, Spot, and Forge, along with a list of 5 more highly specialized methods you can read about by clicking the button below. Each method has specific applications, and there is not typically a one size fits all. We have the capability to use each of these methods for all mild steel, and are currently working on expanding this to aluminum and stainless steel as well!
Welding Methods We Use
MIG
Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding, also known as GMAW (Gas Metal Ark Welding), is an arc welding process that uses a continuous solid wire electrode heated and fed into the weld pool from a welding gun. The two base materials are melted together forming a joint. The gun feeds a shielding gas alongside the electrode helping protect the weld pool from airborne contaminants.
TIG
TIG stands for tungsten inert gas and is also known as gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW). In TIG welding, a tungsten electrode in a hand-held torch heats the metal being welded and a shielding gas (commonly argon) protects the weld puddle from airborne contaminants. The tungsten is a non-consumable and the filler metal is added via a filler rod in the operator’s other hand. The filler rod is added to the puddle of molten metal as the weld progresses.
Stick
Stick welding, also known as manual arc welding, manual electrode welding, manual metal arc welding, or shielded metal arc welding, (SMAW) is typically one of the first welding process that welders are taught during training. It is reasonably easy to learn, and offers insights into the way that welding systems work, as well as the ratio of metals to electrical voltage. It is typically used for thicker, heavier metals and applications. It uses a shielded filler rod to protect the weld from contaminants, burning up the shielding, and melting the filler rod as it is used.
Cutting Services
We offer a variety of cutting services for all your metal related needs! We are working on acquiring new equipment to expand our abilities as well!
Chop Saw
A chopsaw with a Carbide Steel blade is sure to make straight cuts through nearly anything. This cutting tool makes cutting angled, or square cuts simple and efficient. This enables us to streamline our fitting process, and ensures accurate cuts!
Plasma Cutter
A plasma cutter allows neat and accurate cuts on a multitude of sheet mental thicknesses and types, and can even be used on other thinner types of metal. This allows us to create hand cut custom designs and special fitment of sheet metal which is perfect for sheet metal repairs, and artistic designs. Our current plasma cutter can cut through up to 3/8 inch steel, giving us moderate flexibility and cutting abilities.
Band Saw
Our portable bandsaw enables us to quickly cut through many different objects and metals while also removing minimal material! This is one of the most efficient cutting methods we use, and allows us to make highly accurate cuts in a short period of time.
Oxy-Fuel Torch
Our Oxy-Fuel Torch enables us to cut through much thicker material than with the plasma cutter. This torch is multi-functional as well, and can be used to pre-heat base metals in preparation for specific types of welding, relieve stress in certain metals, temper, and even clean!
Coming Soon
We will soon be adding a CNC Plasma cutter. The CNC machine will allow us to make very detailed and artistic designs quickly and accurately.
Repair Services
Did something break or crack? Let us fix it for you!
Even though metal is some of the toughest material out there, it too is subject to the stresses and elements of time and use. Send us an email with pictures of what you have that needs repaired for a quote today! Rust and corrosion only gets worse with time, especially in coastal cities like Houston, so don't wait to get repairs! If we don't have the tools or ability to craft your repairs, we will give you a referral to another trusted company here in Houston who will be able to help!
Additional Services
These are some additional services we offer. If something isn't listed, feel free to reach out and ask it is an available service!
Polishing and painting
Sometimes you buy a product and are disappointed to find it has a rough finish, sharp edges, or maybe you just want a new look. Let us solve this problem for you using our tools to make your life smoother, shinier, or the color of your choosing! We will also be adding a powder coating oven to our toolbox in the future as well, to ensure you get a long lasting protective coat!
Custom Fabrication
Have an idea for something you have designed but don't have the ability to bring it to life? Work with us to make your dreams a reality! Fabricating exactly what you want! We can also fabricate some items from scratch that may have broken, saving you money from needing to buy a new one from a brand name. This ability will greatly increase in the future with our plans to get a lathe and a mill, greatly expanding the possibilities!
Pre-Made / Custom Items
We are constantly working on creating stock of a few different in-demand items such as trailer ramps, tiki torches, and fire pits. If you would like one of these made custom, or just need one of these in a hurry, check in with us to see what we have in stock! The current style of fire pit we are working on is able to be easily broken down and laid flat, which is perfect for beach days, or taking camping with you, saving you space, money, and time!
