Water-soluble purge paper for TIG welding
Aquasol ASW-40C/R-20 is a biodegradable paper roll designed to create temporary purge dams during TIG welding of stainless steel and aluminium pipework. It dissolves completely during hydro-testing, leaving no residue inside the pipeline. The product suits fabricators and maintenance teams who need reliable internal shielding without mechanical removal.
Check pipe diameter and material compatibility
Verify that the pipe internal diameter falls between the 2 in minimum and 36 in maximum stated for this roll. Confirm the base material is aluminium or stainless steel, as the paper is qualified for those alloys. Ensure the welding process is TIG, since the formulation is tailored to that process and its typical purge-gas requirements.
Form roll construction with CE and EPA approvals
The roll measures 20 1/2 in wide by 165 ft long with a thickness of 0.127 mm, made from sodium carboxy methyl cellulose and wooden pulp. The paper is 100 percent biodegradable and carries CE and EPA approvals, meaning it meets recognised environmental and safety standards. In daily use, the roll format allows quick tear-off lengths to match joint spacing, and the rapid dissolution in water or steam eliminates post-weld cleaning inside the pipe.
