Welding Risks vs Cold Bonding

The process of welding metals involves high temperatures generated by an electric arc or the burning of gasses to ‘melt’ the materials so that they fuse into one.

Cold bonding on the other hand is achieved with the use of an adhesive that forms a bond between the two materials.

Over the years, those materials were enhanced to resist higher pressures and temperatures as well as demonstrate high adhesion and compressive strength.
Cold bonding is considered to be a viable alternative to welding due to several reasons, such as:

*There is no risk of sparks or electrical hazards that could harm workers and facilities and no need for hot work permits.
*Cold bonding can be used when cutting and welding are restricted due to the explosive atmosphere.
*The system is solvent-free, 100% solid, and environmentally friendly.
