AWS Certified Level 2 Welders
At RC Custom Fabrication, precision and quality aren’t just goals, they’re requirements. That’s why every welder on our team holds an AWS (American Welding Society) Level 2 Certification. This advanced credential ensures that your project is handled by professionals who meet and exceed industry standards for skill, safety, and reliability.
From architectural metalwork to precision fabrication, we ensure every weld meets the highest industry standards.
What Is an AMS Level 2 Certified Welder?
The AWS Level 2 Welding Certification is an advanced qualification awarded to welders who demonstrate a high level of technical expertise and consistency. Unlike entry-level certifications, Level 2 welders undergo rigorous testing in multiple welding processes, positions, and materials.
Requirements include:
- Hands-on Performance Tests – Welders must pass practical exams that simulate real-world conditions in different positions (flat, horizontal, vertical, overhead).
- Knowledge of Welding Codes & Standards – Candidates must show a working understanding of AWS codes and industry specifications.
- Material Versatility – Certified to work with steel, aluminum, stainless, and other metals commonly used in fabrication.
- Quality & Safety Compliance – Welders are evaluated on their ability to produce structurally sound, defect-free welds while maintaining safety protocols.
This certification is recognized nationwide as proof of advanced welding skill and professional competence.
