Steel welding

Steel welding training: master stick (electrode) welding and MAG welding — welding in its purest form — with personal guidance and plenty of practice.

Good steel welders are in high demand!

WHAT DOES THIS STEEL WELDING TRAINING COVER?

Steel welding is an art that requires mastering a few specific processes.

In practice, stick (electrode) welding and MAG welding are widely used for welding steel.

Stick welding is easy to learn and, with an inexpensive welding machine, you can get started quickly.

A drawback is that it is a fully manual process, making it less efficient than semi-automatic MAG welding.

Steel welding is welding in its purest form.

  • Safety and responsibilities
  • Material behaviour
  • Constructions, execution and weld defects

Frequently asked questions

Which processes do you learn for steel?

For steel you mainly learn stick (shielded electrode) welding and MAG welding — the most common techniques for steel.

Who is this training for?

For anyone who wants to learn to weld steel efficiently and safely. Stick welding is quick to learn; some welding experience is a plus.

Do I receive a certificate?

Every participant receives a certificate of attendance. The duration depends on your experience (1 to 5 days).
