 How to Perform Exothermic Welding:  A Step-by-Step Guide

Introduction:
Exothermic welding is a straightforward process that creates durable electrical connections without requiring external power. AI Earthing® provides industry-standard welding products to ensure a seamless process.

Step-by-Step Exothermic Welding Process:

1. Preparation:

  • Gather materials: graphite mold, welding powder, handle clamp, steel disc, flint igniter, and safety gear.
  • Inspect equipment for any damage.
  • Clean conductors using a wire brush to remove oxide layers.

2. Welding Process:

  • Secure the conductors inside the mold.
  • Insert the steel disc at the mold’s base.
  • Pour exothermic welding powder and starting powder into the mold.
  • Ignite the reaction using a flint gun.
  • Allow the molten metal to cool and solidify.

3. Post-Welding Cleanup:

  • Open the mold after two minutes.
  • Remove slag and clean the mold for reuse.
