Up Topic Welding Industry / Technical Discussions / Laser welding aluminized 409 tubing
- By tcripsey Date 05-07-2003 15:58
I am going to be laser welding aluminized 409 tubing 0.040" thick. The tubing is subsequently spun to 50% of the original diameter, and hence the weld must be highly formable.

I am concerned that the coating will make the weld brittle.

I am considering removing a small strip of the coating either side of the weld line.

Does anyone have any better suggestions?
