Complete TIG Welding Guide for Precision, Repeatable Results

For fabricators who value clean beads, tight tolerances, and zero guesswork, “Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding” is the complete TIG welding guide that turns setup variables into a repeatable process. Built by shop-tested TIG specialists, it delivers field‑proven parameters, clear decision trees, and practical techniques that cut setup time, reduce rework, and improve consistency—whether you’re welding stainless, aluminum, carbon, or nickel alloys.

Inside you’ll find step‑by‑step machine setups by material and thickness, tungsten selection (size, chemistry, and tip prep), cup and gas choices (CFH ranges, gas lens use, purge practices), and dialed‑in AC balance/frequency and pulse recipes for heat control. It covers joint prep, fit‑up, and distortion management, filler metal selection, amperage targets, travel speed cues, and foot‑pedal modulation. Troubleshooting flowcharts and a photo defect library help you quickly correct porosity, undercut, lack of fusion, and color issues. Printable checklists, WPS‑style templates, and quick‑reference tables keep your workflow consistent from first arc to final inspection.

  • Proven settings and workflows by alloy and thickness for faster, cleaner starts.
  • Gas coverage mastery: cups, lenses, CFH, and purge setups that prevent contamination.
  • Quality you can measure: visual acceptance criteria, heat input control, and repeatable QA.
