Abstract

Base metal repairs are necessary to maintain the integrity of the interior flow within piping systems aboard ships. As fluids travel through piping internal degradation of the piping occurs and must be repaired to ensure that the flow remains uninterrupted. Additional material is added to correct the problem by welding; however, the excess weld material must be removed to ensure uniform flow through the piping system. The excess weld material must be removed, and this tool has been designed to remove the excess weld material to produce a uniform result.
