TIG Welding Basics: Precision Without the Guesswork
Learning TIG by trial-and-error is expensive. “Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding” distills the fundamentals into a repeatable process. You’ll master torch control, heat input, filler timing, and gas coverage so you stop chasing defects and start laying clean beads on mild steel, stainless, and aluminum. Built on shop-proven methods and industry best practices, it delivers clarity without fluff—what to do, why it works, and how to set up fast.
If tig welding basics are your priority, this is your field manual—from tungsten selection and prep, AC balance and frequency, cups and gas flow, to joint fit-up, distortion control, and contamination prevention. Troubleshooting sections show exactly how to diagnose porosity, undercut, lack of fusion, and fix them at the source. Expect fewer wasted parts, consistent appearance, and confidence on real jobs.
- Practical setting ranges by material and thickness.
- Pre-weld checklists that eliminate contamination and guesswork.
- Focused drills to lock in angle, arc length, and rhythm.
