Aluminum Welding Tips: Master TIG the Right Way

Aluminum is unforgiving—oxide skins, fast heat soak, and tight fit-up punish guesswork. TIG Welding Secrets delivers shop-proven aluminum welding tips that translate into cleaner beads, fewer reworks, and predictable penetration. Built by instructors and production TIG leads, it cuts through myths with settings, sequences, and visuals you can trust.

Inside, you’ll find precise AC balance/frequency starting points by thickness, pulse ranges that tame heat, and gas lens/cup setups that stabilize coverage. Learn prep that actually eliminates porosity (dedicated SS brush, solvent protocol), how to pick 4043 vs 5356, and how to manage warpage with tacks, chill blocks, and travel discipline. Includes fast diagnostics for soot, undercut, and lack of fusion—plus step-by-step checklists to repeat results on thin sheet to marine plate.

• Stop porosity: proven cleaning sequence and argon flow tables.
• Nail settings fast: AC balance, frequency, and pulse by thickness.
• Stronger, cleaner beads: correct filler, torch angle, heat control.
