Study Notes

  • There are three methods of bending exhaust pipes: program card, pattern bending, and custom bending.
  • Program cards provide information on pipe length, diameter, distance between bends, and rotation and depth of bends.
  • Pattern bending involves measuring and comparing the old pipe to make a new one.
  • Custom bending is necessary when there is no program card or existing pipe.
  • End finishing is important for connecting exhaust system components, and pipe bending machines have swaging and expanding attachments for this purpose.
  • Metal inert gas (MIG) welding is an arc welding process that uses a continuous solid wire electrode heated and fed into the weld pool from a welding gun.
  • Oxy-acetylene welding is used for welding, cutting, and heating to normalize metal, to shrink metal, to forge or shape metal, and to solder.
  • The welding and cutting set consists of oxygen and acetylene cylinders, regulators, hoses, welding torch, and friction lighter.
  • Shielding gas selection for MIG welding depends on the material being welded and the application.
  • The process offers high productivity, as the wire is continuously fed.
  • Oxygen and acetylene cylinders are used for welding and cutting metal.
  • Cylinders contain compressed gas at pressures up to 2,200 PSI.
  • Acetylene cylinders contain a porous filler material wetted with acetone.
  • Regulators are used to adjust high oxygen and acetylene pressures to lower working pressures.
  • Oxygen and acetylene regulators connect to cylinders differently to avoid mixing them up.
  • Double-line rubber hoses are used to connect cylinders, regulators, and torches.
  • Check valves and flashback arrestors are used to prevent backflow and flashbacks.
  • The torch consists of a handle, oxygen and acetylene gas valves, and a mixing chamber.
  • Flashbacks and backfires can occur with improper torch operation.
  • Safety precautions must be taken when using oxy-acetylene setups.
