Backing Rings

http://www.howellpipe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/RobVon-Backing-Rings.png
Used when welding pipe, backing rings (sometimes known as chill rings) serve as support structures behind the weld joint. Their primary purpose is to provide a clean, uniform weld on both the inside and outside of the pipe. This reinforcement helps prevent issues such as burn-through and incomplete penetration during the welding process. Additionally, backing rings help maintain the correct alignment between pipes, ensuring a precise and secure connection.

Howell is an authorized stocking distributor for Robvon’s line of backing rings. They are designed for quick, easy alignment of pipe, tube, fittings and valves and assure precise, close tolerance fit-up. They allow complete penetration and fusion of the weld.
