tjdaggett Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I'm wondering if there is a word in any language for the explosion of fire and scale right after you hit a really hot piece of steel. I'm thinking German or Japanese might have such a word, but it's not something you can really Google. Figured you lot might know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLAG Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Folks, The word "kersplat" is excellent. SLAG suggests that the formal phrase for academic purposes should be "explosive effulgence". Respectfully submitted, SLAG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasPowers Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Arc welding or forge welding? We refer to a "juicy weld" forge welding in my shop. I'll have to track down some people from EMRTC to see if they have a term used in explosive welding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
