Stainless steel TIG welding settings that deliver clean, repeatable fusion

Fighting heat tint, sugaring, and distortion? TIG Welding Secrets gives you proven stainless steel tig welding settings for plate, tube, and sanitary work—so you stop guessing and start producing bright, code-ready welds. Built from thousands of shop hours, it specifies exactly how to set amperage, pulse, gas flow, and torch hardware for consistent results on 304/316 in real-world joints.

Developed by a CWI and procedure-qualified welders, these settings translate across popular machines and are validated on test coupons and production parts. Expect crisp puddle control, tight HAZ, and repeatable color control with less rework and faster setup.

• Thickness-to-amps and pulse schedules by joint type, with tungsten size, cup/gas lens, and starter gas flow ranges.
• Purge tables and quick fixtures that prevent sugaring: flow rates, dwell times, and dam methods for tube/pipe.
• Heat management tactics that work: arc length, travel speed, chill bars, interpass limits, and filler selection for 304/316.
