Swagelok Orbital Welding Services


According to the American Welding Society (AWS), over 20% of welding professionals are approaching retirement. In addition, they project there will be an average of 80,000 welding jobs to be filled annually between 2025 and 2029.

Undoubtedly, it will become even more difficult to find welders in the near future. Eliminate this concern by bringing your weld projects to us.

Let Us Weld it

At Swagelok Western NY we developed an orbital weld program years ago to provide an additional level of support to our customers. Our on staff, factory-trained and ASME IX certified weld operators and examiners have welded stainless steel tubing systems for an array of applications across industries - from simple weldments to complicated spool pieces, general industrial to sanitary and high purity.

  • Our orbital weld operators are fluid system experts
  • We maintain rigorous standards for concavity and convexity tolerances
  • Helium leak testing is conducted to ensure the safety and quality of every weld assembly
  • No scrap or rework for you to worry about - we deliver a finished piece that you can install directly into your system
  • Material expertise – Swagelok products contain a consistent balance of chromium, nickel and sulphur that assures the quality and integrity of the weld, especially important for high-purity applications.

Continual Investment


Our operators perform thousands of welds yearly, providing much needed manpower to companies that find themselves short-handed.  To that end, we continue to make investments to increase the proficiency of our associates and the quality of our welds.
