Did you know? Up to 1/3 of welders and fitters’ activity consists of grinding weld seams. This is an important information to consider when choosing your tool.
Stainless steel and aluminum have a lower heat conductivity than steel and overheat more readily. To avoid overheating and melting the metal onto the abrasive, don’t push on the tool too hard and ensure you use the right abrasive for the job.

With the right tool, drill bit and speed, virtually any material can be drilled. Whether you’re drilling through composite material or hardened steel for an oil and gas or metal-working application, the drill’s speed has the most impact on the quality...
Welding is a very important stage of fabrication. However, for any welding process to be efficient and accurate the material must be prepared properly so that it is in the best possible condition for the next step. This can be achieved by effectively removing coatings such as paint, oils, greases, and rust (oxides).
It is crucial to remove impurities such as rust and mill scale when working with carbon steels. However, when working with stainless steels, it is often important to remove chromium oxide if a shiny decorative finish is required.
Nonferrous materials present their own challenges in the weld preparation process. For example, oxidation can take place very quickly on metals such as aluminum and titanium, and so there is a short time frame between surface cleaning and welding. If large areas are cleaned too early this often results in needing to rework the piece.
