Cold Weld

A metallurgical inexact term generally indicating a lack of adequate weld bonding strength of the abutting edges, due to insufficient heat and/or pressure. A cold weld may or may not have separation in the weld line. Other, more definitive terms, should be used whenever possible to describe this condition.
