Tempilstik has been the industry standard for temperature-indicating sticks for over 80 years, providing welders, inspectors, and fabricators with a fast, accurate, and non-contact method for verifying surface temperature before, during, and after welding. AIMS Industrial is an authorised Tempilstik supplier, stocking individual temperature-indicating sticks and kits for welding applications across manufacturing, mining, and construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14pt;font-weight:bold;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Are \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTempilstik\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Temperature Indicating Sticks?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:12pt;\"\u003eTempilstik temperature-indicating sticks are wax-crayon style sticks that melt at a precise, factory-calibrated temperature. To use one, you mark the surface of the workpiece with the Tempilstik at the target temperature. If the mark melts when the material reaches that temperature, you have confirmation that the correct surface temperature has been achieved. If the mark remains solid, more heat is required. The signal is melting — not colour change — which gives a clear, unambiguous, and repeatable temperature indication directly on the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14pt;font-weight:bold;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplications in Welding \u0026amp; Industrial Fabrication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:12pt;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePreheat Verification: \u003c\/strong\u003eMany structural steels, stainless steels, and chrome-moly alloys require the base metal to be preheated to a minimum temperature before welding commences. Preheating reduces the risk of hydrogen-induced cracking, particularly in higher carbon equivalent steels. Tempilstik provides an immediate, on-the-spot confirmation that the required preheat temperature has been reached before the arc is struck, helping welders and inspectors comply with welding procedure specifications (WPS) and Australian standards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:12pt;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterpass\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Temperature Control: \u003c\/strong\u003eIn multi-pass welding, interpass temperature must be maintained within a specified range — hot enough to keep hydrogen risk low, cool enough to avoid microstructural damage and heat-affected zone (HAZ) problems.
