Abstract: The present invention concerns a method for welding the far ends of two elongated elements together, whereby the above-mentioned far ends are heated up to forging temperature by rotating a ring clamped between them. A flat ring is provided between the far ends, whereby these far ends are axially drawn towards one another and, as soon as the forging temperature is reached, the elements are pushed towards one another with great force by exerting a dynamic force. The device contains driving means to rotate the ring, drawing means to draw the elongated elements towards one another and means to exert a dynamic force.
