Stainless Tig Welding - Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding
Stainless tig welding done right
Stainless tig welding rewards precision and punishes guesswork. Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding distills shop-proven settings, torch setups, and filler choices so your stainless beads stay clean, strong, and corrosion-resistant. From thin sanitary tube to structural plate, you’ll get exact amperage ranges, pulse strategies, and travel techniques that control heat tint and distortion without babysitting the puddle.
Built by veteran fabricators and process engineers, and aligned with AWS/ASME fundamentals, this guide gives you repeatable procedures you can trust. Inside: parameter charts for 304/316/409, step-by-step back-purge methods that eliminate sugaring, and fast troubleshooting trees that turn porosity, undercut, or dull color into dialed-in results. Reduce rework, standardize your setup, and produce inspection-ready welds shift after shift.
- Proven ranges for 0.035-1/4 in stainless with 308L/309L/316L fillers and tungsten sizes
- Shielding and purge gas flow, cup and gas lens selection, and fit-up that keeps roots bright
- Tungsten prep, joint design, heat-input control, and post-weld cleaning/passivation
