Iron Welding

Welding can trace its historic development back to ancient times. The earliest examples come from the Bronze Age. Small gold circular boxes were made by pressure welding lap joints together. It is estimated that these boxes were made more than 2000 years ago. During the Iron Age the Egyptians and people in the eastern Mediterranean area learned to weld pieces of iron together.

In today's day in age, iron welding comes in different forms with the use of different elements. Whether it be a fence made of cast iron, with designs formed in the same technique as the blacksmith's of the ancient times, or a simple wroght iron fence to provide protection to a household or some type of property. Iron welding has evolved just as the times have.
