Frequently Asked Questions

What Are the Three 3 Types of Metal Fabrication?

The three main types of metal fabrication are cutting, bending, and assembling. Cutting involves slicing through metal, bending reshapes the material, and assembling combines pieces, often through welding. Each step requires specific fabrication tools.

Is Welding a Type of Fabrication?

Yes, welding is an essential part of metal fabrication. It’s used to assemble or join metal pieces together to create structures or products. Many fabricators use MIG, TIG, and Stick welding in their fabrication process.

Is a Fabricator a Welder?

While a fabricator may use welding, the roles are distinct. A fabricator shapes and assembles metal into a final product, while a welder focuses solely on joining metal pieces using various welding techniques. In many cases, fabricators need to know how to weld, but their skill set goes beyond welding.

What Welding is Used in Steel Fabrication?

The most common welding methods in steel fabrication are MIG, TIG, and Stick welding. MIG welding is widely used for its speed and versatility, while TIG welding offers greater precision, especially on thin metal. Stick welding is ideal for outdoor or rough conditions.
