ZINM 1110 — ZINM-1110 Advanced 6G Welding
In this Advanced 6G welding course, students will learn the skills to perform a 6G schedule 80 pipe certification test using the shielded metal arc welding process (SMAW or stick welding). This course will further advance students' welding skills to pipe. The student will learn the techniques required of a certified pipe welder. Students will become familiar with different stick electrodes, including E6010 1/8”, E7018 3/32’ and E7018 1/8”. Students will be given the opportunity to perform their 6G schedule 80 pipe certification test during class. Lab practice is geared toward certification to ASME IX, Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code in the 6G position on carbon steel. Once practice and a weldment test piece are completed, the weldment will be tested at an internal or external source. Students will be awarded a certification if their weldments are deemed serviceable. This course is intended for an individual with previous SMAW welding experience who wants to advance their skills into learning. It is highly recommended that students have prior experience in beveled plate (3G or similar) welding prior to attending this course. Note: This is a noncredit course.
