Portable kit identifies weld defects, discontinuities

Realityworks Inc. has introduced the RealCareer® Welding Solutions Weld Defects Kit for welding educators and trainers. The portable, lightweight kit contains 13 plastic, true-to-life models of common defects that can occur during welding.

Educators can use the kit to inspect welds and instruct welding students on how to identify and correct common defects and discontinuities. Students can use it to understand how weld defects occur and how to address them by correcting both their machine and their technique.

The kit includes an instructor guide, welding posters, welding defect flashcards, and comprehensive curriculum with training lessons covering welding safety, types, applications, and testing.
