Information Sheet 1.1
Perform Tacking
Information Sheet
In carrying out some welding operation, very often the pieces have to
be tack welded. Tack welds are simply short sections of weld beads
measured ¼” to ½” long used to maintain the proper root opening between
the two sections of metals being welded (These tack welds are spaced along
the seam and must be firmly fused into the joints.)

KINDS OF TACKING

3. Bridge Tacking is a method of tacking using stiffeners or backing
plate to keep both plates aligned.
Correct Electrode Angle and Speed of Travel. Upon tack welding, the
welder should maintain a stable/uniform speed on the portion of the
metal to be tacked weld together with proper travel angle and work angle.
Correct Current. The welder must consider the current setting in order
to have a good performance. If the current is set too high, the electrodes
melt too fast and the molten pool is large and irregular on the other
hand. If the current is set too low, there is no enough heat to melt the
base metal and the molten pool will be small. The result fill up will be
irregular in shape. More current is required for thick and heavy pieces
than for light thin sections.

Final points =
Marking Schedule:
1. Straightness
Subtract 2 marks for each degree of depletion from the line of weld.
2. Width of Bead
Subtract 4 marks for each 10mm length of bead, which is 1mm less, or more
than required 8mm bead width.
3. Height of Beads
Subtract 4 marks for each 10mm length of bead exceeds the height of 3mm.
4. Ripple

1. Tack welds the plates 10 mm from each end and at the center with no gap
between the edges of the plate.
3. Clamp the plate in the welding positioner with the edge of the plate
parallel to the ground.
NOTE: Position the joint line just below eye level to have a clear view
of the arc when welding commences.
