International Syalons develops welding jigs

An International Syalons (Newcastle) product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Feb 17, 2009

International Syalons produces a range of sialon welding jigs and fixtures, such as gas weld shrouds for orbital welding and weld nozzles for plasma welding.

Welding methods all require the same high standard of materials performance.

Ceramics in welding must be able to withstand thermal shock at a variety of temperatures.

They must have high strength to resist mechanical damage, which is often accidental.

They must be resistant to 'weld spatter' and the consequent build up of weld debris.

They must also, for many applications, be electrically resistant and stable at high temperatures.

Syalon 101 can provide all of these properties.

In orbital welding, Syalon 101 gas shrouds have given 100-fold increases over conventional materials when welding aircraft fuel manifold inlet tubes, claims International Syalons.

In the TIG welding of steel tubes in heat exchanger cores, Syalon 101 nozzles have outlasted alumina nozzles by a factor of 10 to 1, added the company.

In a plasma welding operation, Syalon 101 nozzles were found to be more durable than both alumina and silicon nitride.
