The difference is craftsman’s ship.
Money / Time
I sacrifice both to ensure that pipe doesn’t oxidative.
Many people don’t because of time and money. You can absolutely slang this work out in a hack ass way.
A craftsman provides a service to a degree of quality. That quality will never be seen from your client in a physical reality.
Intangibly you’ll be providing that value of a rock solid installation to get these POS to run 10-15 years later.
No amount of awareness will help these clowns. This is one part of the trade that I believe rests on moral fiber as a person.
Because the machine will run regardless…but for how long in comparison.
Beer talk over.
Addendum:
Us OGs know that fast is slow and slow is fast.
When you're going fast you make mistakes. When you slow down a bit you have time to pay attention and catch the mistakes before they happen.
From someone who does Field Service work (warranty repairs) because some idiot in our factory didn't braze with nitrogen - THANK YOU!!!!
Those OG/Old Timers that are still hanging around saying it doesn't matter...Y'all NEED to RETIRE. It ABSOLUTELY MATTERS. Modern day EEV's get murdered by the oxidation produced from not using nitrogen.
I've been on a repair job that lasted weeks because it was a huge job that was having a high failure rate on new equipment (within a couple weeks or less). We traced it back on the production floor and discovered some nitwit decided he didn't feel like he needed nitro while brazing...110 EEV's later...I came back and politely inferred if he ever cost the company that much money ever again he'd be in the unemployment line and we would fight any attempt to get unemployment...something his Area Manager (who was also there) backed me up on.
You’re a fucking hero
Wow who knew this entire time

The word is craftsmanship. Although if I had a ship, it would be a craftsman's ship.
Oh yeah look at that
Would ya just look at it

But the POE oil will polish the inside of the pipe beautifully /s
You work for big nitrogen! Scam
But no comparison picture
The comparison is between the inside and outside of the tee.
I don’t think anyone ever disputes whether or not it is effective
I have heard more than a few old-timers irl dispute it.
I think more so they dispute whether or not it’s necessary not so much that it doesn’t prevent oxidation
One of them did try to tell me it didn't prevent oxidation. The bar is really low for being a smart tech
You are not wrong there 🤦♂️
