AB  - This research deals with the welding
technology of copper pipes which is mainly used in
refrigeration systems and boilers. The chemical
composition of this metal confirms that is to pure copper
(&ge;99.99 Cu). This metal shows an excellent weldability.
Oxyacetylene welding process with silver filler is used to
join two pieces of copper pipes. Weld inspection for all
welded samples involves the evaluation of the integrity
and mechanical prosperities of the weld joint. That was
conducted using several destructive and non-destructive
tests on the weld joints such as, Tensile, hydrostatic, x-ray
and Liquid penetrant tests). These tests procedure reveals
that, the weld joint maintain a good mechanical properties
and acceptable weld defect.
