Huntingdon Fusion Techniques Limited (HFT), British designer and manufacturer of Weld Purging Accessories, has extended its range of Flexible Welding Enclosures, which were developed originally to provide a low cost alternative to traditional metal vessels.

Previous HFT enclosures have been circular in section but developments in manufacturing technology now afford opportunities to produce square and rectangular enclosures.

At less than one twentieth of the cost of rigid welding enclosures, The Company has manufactured and shipped these rectangular versions in sizes up to 2m long and 1m x 1m in section.

The enclosures are manufactured from Ultra Violet Radiation resistant PVC with the bottom half being translucent and the upper half optically clear for excellent welding vision.

All enclosures are manufactured as standard with two sets of glove ports with sleeves and gloves, with extra sets being specified at the time of order.

In addition, an entry lock is fitted for small parts to be taken in and out without loss of purge quality. An exhaust valve allows continuous purging so that impurities can be expelled during welding.

The HFT Technical and Development departments work very closely with Companies purchasing these enclosures to guarantee fast purge times and the elimination of any oxidation of the parts.
