Welding Titanium

[chevyvictor]

loving the tongue at the end LOL

[30041983TCM]

Where is that titanium welding,waste of time with guy's like you,misleading.

Showing a pipe is not welding titanium.

[inagod]

you should be working on the C-1,or is this before Lit ?

[24preacherboy]

You look like a Japanese guy

[jessemccollum]

I always felt welding Ti was more like stainless than aluminum

[goagil1981]

He was scared. And this is not the right setup to weld titanium.

[Devilwelder]

what the fuck u welded? i didn t seen any welding on this video.

[DominicRiv]

People that get angry on YouTube are loser bitches.

[dougspair]

@DominicRiv Yes...what do they want for free...?

[peterod82]

you guys are all fags...these types of people cant even see to drive a car!What makes you think he can weld titanium?

[inagod]

@peterod82 and your a retard compared to Danny,who has done a lot more in his short life then you ever will,sorry but I hate racist people,it's like here we go again,it's old.

[bazengao]

i liked that part the he was actualy welding titanium...

[dougspair]

@mccoydfm404

 In the box...good for 4-2-1 stainless headers too...

pure magnesium is not suitable as a frame material. It is actually a aluminum alloy that has higher mg content (anywhere upto 30% as used in pinarello dogma). mg is extremely reactive to oxygen and therefore needs to be protected from the atmosphere. pinarello dogma has paint over ceramic coating to protect from wear, scratches, ect. which makes it a lot heavier than conventional aluminum alloy frame xp

[JamesKim13]

Ti has much higher strength/density compared to aluminum alloys such as 6061 and 7005 however it is also much more elastic material. It is possible to make very light Ti frame it just would be all noodly and woobly. Lightspeed Gishello, which weighs less than 900g for 56cm(impressive even for carbon frame) is an excellent example. The same frame is also notorious for being flexy and unpredictable in corners and generally unridable.

[joohop]

the vid is called welding titanium yet there is no welding ? MAJOR FAIL

[dannykim8379]

@joohop I am sorry. It is just like welding aluminum. click on other links to watch. But it give you an idea of the set up. I wouldn't say major fail.

[ItsDamianLOL]

@dannykim8379 Just like welding aluminum except a thousand times more expensive and easier to screw up. It's also easier to kick yourself in the ass for screwing up while welding titanium. Good video.

@joohop I am sorry. It is just like welding aluminum. click on other links to watch. But it give you an idea of the set up. I wouldn't say major fail. look at the maiden voyage

[weldinggod1]

@joohop Welding is 99% setup, prep and pre thinking on the weldor's part. The actual part of the process where you lay down some bead is the easiest, and in most cases the only part people like you, think they know. Look at the great setup, clean, tidy, strong and well made jog, excellent purge setup. Listen to the guy in the video, he is the expert, not you. Major fail on you feeble understanding.

Nice video, nice setup, and thanks for taking the time to film and post the video, great work,

[stratline7]

What is the thickness of the tube you are welding?

[inagod]

how did you get into welding and the bike industry? Thanks

[dannykim8379]

@egopower...gosh, I don't really have any suggestions besides just buying some titanium and playing around with it alot? I wish I had more useful information.

[egopower]

@dannykim8379 Where are you doing the work in this video?

[dannykim8379]

@egopower...gosh, I don't really have any suggestions besides just buying som titanium and playing around with it alot? I wish I had more useful information.

[IRONMAIDENFAN2006]

there is no such thing as titanium or steel or gold... there is only rock you are being lied to people..

[dumbass5000]

is being a GTAW bike welder a good paying job?

[titanioduplex11]

@dumbass5000 must be....

[ptrptms]

Does it "pull" or distort more or less than stainless?

[Wroom90]

How is welding titanium compared to steel and alu?

[dannykim8379]

it is feels like Stainless. A but is temperature sensitive like Aluminum. and then there is the set-up time that is much more complicated than aluminum. It is hard. but very very gratifing when you perfect your first successful bead!

[rypod28]

Howdy,Im in the processs of getting tested welding pipe Gg tig root,any advice on doing my root run,travel speed,weave or free hand,cleaning of the pipe ect??

cheers

[cheeseboat15]

All I can recommend is master walking the cup

[jdh023]

I'm assuming you mean 6G not Gg. I'll try to help. CLEANLINESS is next to godliness. Clean the INSIDE of the coupon as well as the outside (wirebrush on a grinder with a stainless wire wheel). Since you don't give thickness of the pipe I can't help with anything other than stating WALK THE CUP (practice). Freehand is to open to defect. Good luck. SOURCE: 6G and FAA certified welder.

[jordzzzzzzz]

^ knows what he's talkin about. i'd add fit up a hair under an 8th. no land. may have to file out bigger or zipcut. as it shrinks

[egopower]

@dannykim8379 I'd really like to get into welding, especially Ti....any hints as to what schools in north america offer this?

[snugs342]

its a lot harder. steel is easiest to tig stainless is the hardest. titanium is stronger and lighter that aluminum

[bds101]

@snugs342 stronger yes lighter no

[M3rider]

@snugs342 titanium is heavier than aluminum believe it or not

[egopower]

@snugs342 Ti is not lighter than aluminum. It's lighter than steel and most other metals, but not aluminum or magnesium. Check the periodic table or wikipedia the densities of those metals.

[snugs342]

@egopower idk y someone sounding as educated as u would even think about mentioning wikipedia. but titanium is lighter than aluminum but not magnesium. if u could weld it right, magnesium is the lightest and strongest metal. i have seen all of them done first hand and after picking up all three magnesium was the lightest aluminum was the heaviest. thank you come again

[egopower]

@snugs342 Density of Titanium = 4.506 g/ cubic cm. Density of Aluminum = 2.7 g/ cubic cm. Titanium is more than 50% heavier than aluminum. I work with these materials daily, I know what they are and how much they weigh. Lifting a sample material by hand is hardly an accurate way to compare weight. The information is readily available. You don't have to take my word for it. It's a cold hard fact that titanium weighs more than aluminum cubic cm to cubic cm.

[JamesKim13]

@snugs342 I believe you are talking about weight/density ratio. Aluminum in its pure form has lower weight/density ratio compared to steel. However alloying with various metals (which is where distinctions such as 6061 and 7005 comes in, it is just a code given by automotive industry based on major alloying metals) and heat treating gives it both greater strength and ductility (again terms like T5 and T6 is used by automotive industry based on what temp this was done at).
