SUGGESTIONS FOR WELDING STAINLESS STEEL (CONTINUED) TIG Welding SUGGESTIONS FOR WELDING SOLID STAINLESSS STEEL CUT LENGTHS In TIG welding, the arc is struck between the work MIG Welding STAINLESS STEEL (START) & SPOOLED WIRES piece and the non-consumable tungsten electrode. Gas-Metal-Arc welding is generally called MIG MIG welding doesn't need expensive machinery, and The consumable wire is melted in the arc (metal inert gas) welding. In this process, the the welding machines are easily transportable, making atmosphere and the inert-gases like Argon or consumable wire travels through a nozzle and a this process very popular on construction sites. In MIG Helium or their mixture are used as shielding tip before it strikes an arc with the work piece, welding, shielding gas, welding parameters, and the gases. TIG is extremely suited to join thin sheets, The arc atmosphere is shielded by gases like: consumable assume an important role. Shielding tubes, and making root pass welding in pipes, since • 100% argon gases are chosen taking quality, cost, and operability the heat input in this process is minimal. TIG welds into consideration. do not cause any undercuts or excessive • 99% argon with I% oxygen In the case of welding with flux cored wires, 100% CO penetration and the distortion is lowest compared to • 97% argon with 3% carbon dioxide. 2 and 75% Argon + 25% CO are used as shielding any other welding process. TIG welds offer 2 MIG welding is a high-productivity process. gases. superior quality, but result in low productivity.
