Can a butane torch weld copper pipe

No. Welding can not be, the welding process temperature is not up to 1300 degrees.

The part of the welding process that performs the welding operation is the tool used for gas welding, which is shaped like a gun with a nozzle at the front end that emits a high-temperature flame as a heat source. It is flexible and easy to use, and the process is simple.

The gas welding gun is a combustible gas (hydrogen or acetylene and air mixture) combustion, heating the snake tube, so that the compressed air fed into the snake tube is heated to the desired temperature.

The amount of air fed in or out is regulated by a cork. The heating device of the welding torch is composed of a ceramic groove tube and an electric wire in it. The speed of welding can vary with the nozzle structure. The fast welding torch is made by improving the structure of the nozzle of the welding torch.

Expanded Information

The torch is used to hold the studs, lift the studs (to ignite the arc), lower the studs, and transmit the welding current. The torch attachment also has a support bracket to ensure that the stud is perpendicular to the surface of the workpiece. When the diameter of the stud changes, it is necessary to replace the corresponding diameter of the stud collet, adjust the connecting rod between the support bracket and the torch body extends the length of the rod, so as to adapt to the different lengths of the stud.

The action of lifting and lowering the electrode (stud) by the torch is accomplished by three main components: electromagnetic coil, iron core and spring.

Auxiliary gas-shielded flux-cored wire arc welding torch used with melting pole gas-shielded arc welding is similar to that used. There are a variety of specifications, ratings, style, applicable to automatic and semi-automatic welding torch, air-cooled and water-cooled.

While the shielding gas passes through the torch in a cool manner, air-cooled torches rely on heat dissipation into the surrounding air for cooling. The choice of torch is mainly based on the welding current and the shielding gas used. If the welding current is 500A or more, a water-cooled torch is generally used. When the welding current used is less than 500 amps, some welders still prefer to use a water-cooled welding torch.
