On May 30, welders celebrate their professional holiday.
In Russia, Welder's Day is observed annually on the last Friday of May. This profession requires extensive knowledge of the natural sciences, precise skills and abilities. The work of welders is important for maintaining and developing the city's infrastructure and is necessary across various industrial sectors.
Interesting facts:
- Forge welding was the first method for creating permanent joints between metals, achieved by the action of a blacksmith's hammering tool on the metal.
- Temper colors — the iridescent streaks on the surface of heated metal — are used as an artistic technique in decorative welding.
- Welding or watching a welder at work without personal protective equipment is dangerous not only because of sparks, splashes of molten metal, welding fumes, etc., but also because of the ultraviolet rays emitted by the electric arc in a spectrum invisible to the human eye.
- Mercury has the lowest melting point (-38,87 °C), tungsten the highest (3422 ℃).
Reliable, high-quality and comfortable workwear, footwear and PPE, properly selected according to the type of work performed, help the welder — to preserve health, and the employer — to retain valuable personnel. For reliable protection of welders from potential risks, we develop and manufacture modern and high-quality PPE of protection classes 1, 2 and 3.
We sincerely congratulate welders on their professional holiday! We wish them new professional achievements, excellent results, and comfortable and safe working conditions.
