 Among the finest ambulances made in America are
those of the Bowers Ambulance Service of
Beach. California. From Cadillae Chassis to Na

fornia. Whether for minute or vast hourly
quirements. ab very low or extremely high delive
pressures. no regulators will give vou better sery
or more trouble-free performance than will \alional :
LNidionat
No other regulator is so easy to adjust and no others will hold that pressure adjustment more
steadily. Designed and built for the merciful handsof the hospital nurse. the sturdinessof these
regulators will withstand the toughest operations in shop or field. Intended to sustain the flick
ering life of the injured or the ill. it will maintain the finest torch flame adjustment regardle
of weather or gas volume.
One touch of the adjusting screw and you will know why NATIONAL of California regulator
have won the test of time. Made by an organization with nearly half a century of experience
in the fields of high pressure gas equipment design and manufacture. you can rely upon
these products.
These regulators will require reconditioning but seldom: but. when they do. thi- job ha- been

HOW YOUR NEXT JOB

WILL BE HANDLED

FOR LESS COST

For lowest cost, Weldynamics indicates that both

AC & DC welding currents are needed to take full
advantage of today’s high-speed electrodes. One
machine, Idealarc, fills this need does the work
of two welders. As a result, you need fewer
machines, work scheduling is simplified, there are
fewer machines standing idle.
Lincoln men, trained in Weldynamics, will show
you how to apply these cost cutting advantages to
your specific jobs—with the latest methods and
electrodes available today.

Recommended practices for welding

and gas-cutting USS “T-1” Steel

WELDING. You can metal-arc weld
l-1° Steel manually in the same
hot-rolled structural carbon steels
sure to use low-hvydrogen electrodes
E9015 o E12015-16 classifications. These
electrod must be kept dry. You also can
omaticalh weld this steel by the sub
merged-arc process and by the inert-gas
| metal-are process The strin
hnique is the best to use
hen welding USS r-1 Steel
1. Do not use cellulose-covered electrodes because
of the danger of underbead cracking
2. If the final weldment must be stress-relieved or
otherwise heat-treated, do not use electrodes of the
Nickel-Molybdenum-Vanadium type
3. In general, do not preheat this steel. If preheat-
ing is necessary to improve the properties of the weld
metal, don’t let the preheat temperature go above
250 degrees F
4. Whether or not you preheat, don’t let the inter-
pass temperature go above 250 degrees F
5. Be careful to prevent local overheating if flame
gouging is used
6. In submerged-arc welding, don’t let the heat input
to the base metal be greater than that used with
diameter manual electrodes
GAS-CUTTING. Steel may he
cut as readil iss ictural carbon steel, using
any of the commercial fuel gases now in use
Preheating is not necessary. You can softer
the flame-cut edge to facilitate machini: if
lesire. If vou do, don't let the tempera

Precaution: Never gas-cut blooms

quenched and tempered. They should
sawed or hot-sheared, or cold-sheared if the
size permits
QUALIFICATION OF WELDERS. [1 som
cases, AWS-ASME Standard Qualification
Procedure for testing welding operators is not
suitable for USS “T-1” Steel. The standard
radius mandrel and guided bend jig forces
longation of about 20°% in the extreme
tal fiber. Since this is bevond the capacity
the high-vield-strength weld metal de
posited by some electrodes used with USS
1 Steel, a welding operator should not
lisqualified because of weld-metal charac
ristics not under his control. Consequent!
e ASME Boiler Code permits, in certain
cases, a larger 1!,”-radius mandrel for the
jualification test
REMEMBER THIS: In no other alloy plat
steel would vou find the combination of proy
ties that r-1 Steel possesses Here in
just one steel, vou get very high vield strengt!
(90,000 psi minimum), extraordinary tough
