Stainless tig welding made precise, clean, repeatable

Stainless tig welding punishes guesswork. TIG Welding Secrets compresses years of shop-proven technique into a clear, step-by-step playbook for controlling heat, color, and distortion—so your stainless beads stay tight, bright, and inspection-ready. Built for fabricators who live on stainless tig welding.

Inside: repeatable setups (DCEN, 2% lanthanated 1/16–3/32, gas lens, #8–#12 cups, 15–25 CFH argon or Ar/He on thick), fit-up and cleaning that stop contamination, back-purging that prevents sugaring, and filler guidance (308L/309L/316L). Plus amperage charts from 0.040 to 1/4 in, pulse presets for thin wall, torch-angle and travel-speed cues, and fast fixes for gray welds, pinholes, and wandering arcs. No fluff—just parameters, checklists, and workflows that hold up on the floor.

• Exact starting amps, tungsten size, cup, and flow for common stainless thicknesses.
• Fit-up, purge dams, and flow rates to lock in straw-to-gold color.
• Distortion control: sequence, tack strategy, chill bars, and interpass discipline.
