Stainless Steel Tig Welding Settings - Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding

Stainless steel TIG welding settings, simplified and repeatable

Stop guessing. When stainless runs too hot or too cold, you get warping, grainy beads, and wasted time. Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding gives you clear, field‑tested stainless steel TIG welding settings you can trust—so your first arc lands in the window and your last bead looks like your first.

Built by seasoned TIG instructors and code welders, this concise reference delivers dial‑in tables for 304/316 from thin sheet to 1/4", with DCEN polarity, tungsten size/type, 100% argon flow, gas lens and cup selection, pulse presets, and filler guidance. You’ll control heat tint, shrink the HAZ, and hit consistent penetration without chasing knobs. Expect fewer reworks, cleaner color, and faster setup on every job.

  • Thickness-to-amperage windows (approx. 0.8–1.0 A per 0.001") for common stainless joints.
  • Proven tungsten, cup, and gas flow combos that stabilize arc and shield the puddle.
  • Practical pulse starting points to limit distortion and keep weld color in spec.
