Profile: High Energy Metals, Inc. specializes in explosive metalworking. Our common explosive metalworking technique is explosive welding, also known as explosive bonding or explosive cladding. Our transition joint has high mechanical strength and can withstand drastic thermal excursions. Our explosion welding or bonding is a solid state welding process that is used for the metallurgical joining of dissimilar metals. Our explosion bonding can introduce thin, diffusion inhibiting inter-layer such as tantalum and titanium, which allow conventional weld-up installation.
