Welding & Finishing

Evans offers an extensive range of welding and finishing services to meet the needs of highly diverse projects. Whether your project is large or small, all components will be welded according to ISO 9001:2015, NTMA standards, or higher. Our welding capabilities include:

  • Metal Inert Gas Welding (MIG). This process involves feeding wire to a joint while gas flows to the welding handle, protecting the weld from surrounding air. MIG welding is a cost-effective technique often used in automotive, construction, and sheet metal projects.
  • Shielded Metal Arc Welding. Also referred to as STICK or SMAW welding, this technique uses a powder-coated rod that melts, creating an oxygen-proof shield. Filler metal can be added to the rod’s coating to speed up the welding process. STICK welding is often used with carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel materials.
  • Spot Welding. Spot welding is a form of resistance welding that joins metal pieces using only pressure and an electric current. This technique is often used in electronics, construction, and automotive industry projects.
  • Submerged Arc Welding (SAW). SAW joins two metal parts by creating an electric arc between a workpiece and a continuously fed electrode. A layer of granular flux covers the welding wire, arc, and weld joint. The process creates clean, uniform welds.
  • Tungsten Arc Welding (TIG). A torch connected to a gas supply and a non-consumable tungsten rod heat metal materials while consumable filler metal is added manually. TIG welding is commonly used in aerospace, automotive, and furniture manufacturing industries due to its strength, control, and versatility.
  • After we complete the welding process, we can provide various value-added and finishing services to eliminate weld seams on visible surfaces and improve the performance, durability, and appearance of your products.
