Wait... did your weld just crack HOURS after you finished? 💥
Here is exactly why that happens when you don't preheat. 👆
If you weld a thick plate of high-strength steel at room temperature, the cold metal sucks the heat out instantly. This traps carbon atoms in the lattice, creating a brittle structure. The result? Delayed cold cracking. 📉
Don’t risk your hard work. Calculate your exact preheat temperature (like the 140°C shown in the video) before you even start.
