Welding Symbols Quick Card (English only) Pamphlet – February 12, 2010

I keep these close by for the less common symbols and the occasional need for formulas. They are very durable. You'll get years of use of these if you keep them put away properly.

My boyfriend is currently going to welding school so I thought this would be the perfect gift for Christmas. I was under the impression this was just a small one sided card with some symbols so I was a bit hesitant to pay almost nine dollars for it! Also I was worried I wouldn't be able to tell if it had the correct information and was afraid to be embarrassed giving him an incorrect reference card! However when it came in I realized it's actually three sheets put together and both front and backs are filled out with info! Some sections included are: weld joints and positions, types of joints, types of welds, ISO symbols, AWS symbols, parts of the weld, welding processes by letters, etc. there are also many pictures and diagrams to show you exactly what to do! I have no welding experience or back ground and I could understand a majority of it just by looking at pictures (no I'm not planning on attempting any lol) another useful feature is they include conversion tables! They're included for length, area, and volume! There's also an English conversion that tells you what prefixes mean and what that number is written out. Example: mega... million... M.... 1,000,000=10^6

Lots of great info. Must have.

We bought this for my weld inspectors, they were looking for a good, quick reference tool for all the different welds they need to look at and verify them to the prints. Our issue we find is that the engineers may not all be aware of the correct weld or call out and with every engineer being different and the hundreds of prints we review. This was very handy. We even just ordered 10 more today for the welders to use as a reference tool and will put these around their break areas that they can review as they please.

Great tool for beginners and even experts to look back on for fast results

This Quick Reference is a very heavy duty construction with a multitude of symbols and illustrations. It is made of heavy card stock that is sealed completely in plastic for max preservation when used in the shop.

Covers all the basic and some of the more rare welding symbols that you will need when reading blueprints
