Welding Defects

Welding defects are the deviations in shape and size of the metal structure compared to design standards and technical requirements.

These defects reduces their durability and productivity.

Welding defects are formed during welding process

In the common types of weld defects, crack is the most dangerous form and almost all standards do not accept the appearance of crack.

Common Welding Defects are
  1. Cracks
  2. Porosity
  3. Slag inclusion
  4. Overlap
  5. Incomplete Penetration
  6. Incomplete Fusion
  7. Undercut
  8. Overlap
