I know that piping could be butt welded by inserting a consumable ring (see ASME B31.3 FIG. 328.3.2). When asking weld consumable suppliers, they answer that they don't know it (Perhaps here in Europe).
Would you give me a list of suppliers in Europe or in U.S. for this kind of consumable ?

Thanks (M.A., Belgium)

we have used Arcos for stailess steel E.B inserts extesively. it is an excellent product. we used for very criticle nuclear piping.
Robvon was mainly in carbon steel inserts . We have used for carbon steel high pressure piping.

Weldring makes fether edge design , which was used in more accurate fit up and welding
GRINNEL ALSO MAKES ALL TYPE OF INSERTS AND N VERY POPULAR .
