How to Make a Perfect Y-Pipe Joint

If you need to weld a neat Y-shaped branch of pipes, trimming their ends causes many problems. When there is no special template available, it is almost impossible to prepare the parts correctly so that everything fits together without gaps. In fact, it’s possible to do without marking devices, you just need to know one trick.

What you will need:


  • marker;
  • ruler or profile pipe;
  • Bulgarian;
  • welding machine.

The process of marking, trimming and welding


It is necessary to measure the diameter of the pipes that will be welded.

After this, you need to draw a diagram of the location of the pipes on this surface in real size. To do this, use a ruler, or a profile pipe of a similar cross-section to the one being welded.
