A 6GR Flux Core welding test is one of the highest-level structural welding tests, typically used for offshore, pipe, and high-restriction positions. A welder taking a 6GR test must be able to:
  • Weld on a fixed 45 inclined pipe where the pipe cannot rotate.
  • Work around a restrictive ring (R-ring) that limits access and requires strong torch control.
  • Perform multi-pass Flux Core (FCAW) welding following WPS requirements.
  • Weld in multiple positions at once (overhead, vertical, uphill, and downhill sections).
  • Maintain proper penetration, fusion, reinforcement, and tie-ins while working around limited visibility and tight clearance.
  • Produce a weld sound enough to pass visual inspection, bend tests, and/or X-ray depending on company standards.
This test shows the welder can handle high-skill, high-restriction pipe welding required in marine, offshore, and industrial environments. 2G Flux Core Welder A 2G Flux Core test evaluates a welders ability to weld plate in the horizontal position. A welder taking a 2G test must be able to:
  • Weld a horizontal groove weld on plate (the plate is vertical, the weld is horizontal).
  • Use Flux Core (FCAW) process per the WPS.
  • Maintain correct travel speed, heat input, and weave or stringer technique.
  • Perform multiple passes (root, fill, and cap).
  • Ensure clean root fusion, proper penetration, and uniform bead appearance.
  • Pass visual inspection, bend tests, or X-ray as required.
Both 6G & 2G tests will be performed to shows the welder can perform consistent, quality horizontal groove welds used throughout structural fabrication and ship repair.
