Welding & Cutting Solutions
Welding & Cutting Solutions from Scot Agri
At Scot Agri we are proud to offer a comprehensive fabricator service tailored to meet the ever-changing needs of the agricultural sector. Based at our Glenrothes depot, whether you require a repair to a vital piece of equipment or have a custom fabrication project in mind our experienced Fabricators are here to help.
The team utilise several techniques including MIG welding, TIG welding, stick welding and plasma cutting.
MIG Welding – Efficiency & Strength
MIG Welding (Metal Inert Gas) is a highly efficient method of welding where a continuous wire feed comes through the welding gun and is mixed with inert gas which protects the weld pool from contamination. This method is best suited to projects where speed is required without any compromise on weld integrity.
TIG Welding – Precision and Aesthetics
TIG Welding (Tungsten Inert Gas) uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to create the weld, while filler material is applied separately, this allows for greater control of the welding process. TIG welding is ideal for projects where detail and finish are the greatest priority.
Stick Welding – Versatility & Reliability
Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) more commonly known as Stick welding involves an electric current that flows through a consumable electrode rod to form the weld. This method is suited to a wide range of conditions including indoor jobs and produces a durable and effective weld.
Plasma Cutting – Precision & Adaptability
By channelling an electric arc through a constricted gas stream, the gas is transformed into plasma which can melt metal quickly and accurately. This technology is mostly used where precise, clean, and accurate cuts are required on complex fabrication projects.
Whatever your fabrication needs are, our highly trained and experienced team will be more than happy to help.

Welding & Cutting Solutions Frequently Asked Questions
Our fabrication team, based at our Glenrothes depot, uses MIG, TIG and stick welding alongside plasma cutting to cover everything from quick repairs to full custom fabrication projects. Each method suits a different job: MIG for fast, strong welds, TIG for precision and finish, stick welding for tough or awkward conditions, and plasma cutting for clean, accurate cuts on complex jobs.
Yes. Our fabricators repair worn or damaged ground-engaging equipment and attachments, from buckets to telehandler forks, getting vital kit back to work rather than needing a full replacement. Get in touch with details of the part and the damage, and our team can advise on the best repair approach.
Our welding and fabrication service is based at our Glenrothes depot, so in most cases you'll need to bring the job to us. If you're dealing with an urgent breakdown, contact your local depot or the Glenrothes team directly and they can advise on the best way to get you back up and running.
Between MIG, TIG and stick welding, our team can generally work with common agricultural fabrication materials such as mild steel and stainless steel, with TIG particularly suited to finer or lighter-gauge work. If you have a specific material in mind, it's best to check with the Glenrothes team to confirm before booking a job.
Our fabrication team is highly trained and experienced across MIG, TIG, stick welding and plasma cutting. If a specific certification matters for your project, it's worth confirming the details directly with the Glenrothes team before booking.
Our welding and fabrication service is based at our Glenrothes depot. Get in touch with the team there, or through your local Scot Agri depot, to discuss your repair or fabrication project and arrange a booking.
Yes. Alongside repairs, our fabrication team takes on bespoke projects such as silage side extensions, grain box extensions, custom quick-hitch adaptors, hydraulic hose guards and bespoke bracketry, all built to suit your specific tractor, loader or implement. If you've got something in mind that isn't a standard part, it's worth a conversation with the Glenrothes team to see what's possible.
Hardfacing is the process of welding a wear-resistant layer of metal onto a part's surface, typically the areas that see the most abrasion, such as bucket edges, teeth and other ground-engaging surfaces. It builds up a tougher outer layer that wears down instead of the base metal underneath, extending the working life of the part before it needs replacing. Get in touch with our Glenrothes team to discuss whether hardfacing is the right option for your equipment.
