Frequently Asked Questions

Is welding only done with a welding torch?



Can all metals be welded together?


Is soldering a form of welding?

The answer is both yes and no. Traditional welding is done by heating up two pieces of metal that become molten along an edge and are fused together. Soldering involves not heating up the two pieces of metal but melting a lower melting-point material between them to cause a joint. So, soldering is a form of welding as welding involves heat and connecting two different components but it is not strictly welding as it uses an intermediary to create a joint.

How can I tell if someone is a welder?


  • They use a welding rod for chop sticks.
  • They are sunburnt in winter.
  • Their shirts, sneakers, and socks are ventilated.
