Earlbeck Gases & Technologies can provide test coupons for you to weld in your shop to any welding code, as well as practice and test coupons to test in your shop.

We provide kits for AWS D1.1- Structural Welding Code for you to complete using your filler metal in either Limited or Unlimited thickness in 1 or 2 positions, in the SMAW or FCAW process. Complete the test with the instructions provided, and send back to us for processing.  If your test passes, we will mail you your test results within 5-7 business days. For other codes, please give us a call at (410) 687-8400. 
​
The cost of each weld test kit includes the listed materials, prequalified testing procedures you can sign and use, test instruction sheet, test data sheet, processing of the test(s) by us, and upon successful completion, a welder qualification document. 

AWS D1.1 weld test requires that a welder follows an approved Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) when completing a Welder Qualification Test and that a company has its own WPS for production work.  Four Prequalified WPS’s are included for you to sign and use for this testing only and cannot be used by you for production work.  If you do not have a valid production WPS and would like us to help you prepare one, please contact our Engineering Department (tsmith@earlbeck.com).

The included Welding Procedure Specifications are:

•  - 3/8" Plate welded with 3/32", 1/8" or 5/32" E7018 Electrodes
