Master the Stainless TIG Weld with Confidence

When stainless fights back, it’s rarely your hands—it’s heat control, gas coverage, and prep. Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding consolidates shop-proven procedures to produce a flawless stainless tig weld on sheet, tube, and plate. Learn DCEN setup, arc length discipline, pulse logic, cup and gas flow selection, and purge strategy to keep roots sugar‑free and caps straw‑clean. Get exact parameter ranges by thickness and alloy, fixture and sequence tactics to tame distortion, and inspection cues that pass food/pharma standards.

Written by veteran TIG specialists with thousands of certified joints behind them, this field guide replaces trial‑and‑error with repeatable results. Includes WPS-style checklists, filler metal selection (308L/309L/316L), oxygen targets, color charts, and troubleshooting trees for porosity, undercut, and contamination—so your stainless looks right and tests right, the first time.

• Dial in tungsten, amperage, pulse, cup size, and gas flow in minutes.
• Eliminate heat tint and sugaring with proven purge setups and O2 targets.
• Pick the right filler and technique per joint for strength and appearance.
