    When welding rails together using the Thermite process began at the start of the 20th century, a section of railhead approximately 3 ⁄ 4 inch (19 mm) long, also called a dutchman, was often placed between the sections being joined, with only the web and foot of the rail being new Thermite steel.

  5. Weldability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weldability

    Many metals and thermoplastics can be welded, but some are easier to weld than others (see Rheological weldability). A material's weldability is used to determine the welding process and to compare the final weld quality to other materials. Weldability is often hard to define quantitatively, so most standards define it qualitatively.

  6. Percussion welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percussion_welding

    The electrical energy for the percussion welding can be supplied by a transformer, as alternating current (or rectified), or by the discharge of capacitors.Because of the short duration of the arc and of the fact that all of the weld energy comes from this arc, the electrical resistance of the parts to be welded does not affect the amount of heat generated at the weld and substances of ...
