Abstract

958,697. Welding by fusion and pressure. UNITED KINGDOM ATOMIC ENERGY AUTHORITY. July 24, 1962 [Aug.1, 1961]., No. 27836/61. Heading B3R. [Also in Division G6] In the manufacture of a nuclear fuel element (see Division G6), a stainless steel end cap 11 is hermetically attached to a stainless steel can 2 by an argonarc weld 52 and a resistance weld 53. Specification 889,536 is referred to.
