  What does good welding look like?

  Although different techniques produce different-looking welds, in general a good weld should have:
  • A smooth and uniform appearance
  • Good penetration
  • The correct profile (either flat, convex or concave, depending on the type of weld)
  • Little to no ‘spatter’
  • Some colouration of the parent metal either side of the weld
  • No surface pores
  • No colouration on the surface
  • No burns
  • Even and well-feathered ripples
