TIG Welding Stainless Steel for Beginners

Stainless punishes guesswork. If you’re new, you need a clear, repeatable setup—torch angle, amperage, gas flow, and filler selection—so you stop chasing color and start laying clean, strong beads. Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding distills shop‑tested steps for tig welding stainless steel for beginners—no fluff, just the exact sequence from prep to post‑weld.

Built by working fabricators and instructors, it covers joint prep, fit‑up, purge fundamentals, distortion control, and pulse strategy with clear visuals and checklists that remove trial‑and‑error. You’ll learn the why behind each move, so you can prevent sugaring, fix porosity, control heat tint, and hit consistent penetration on 304/316 from thin to mid‑gauge. Confident setup, predictable results, faster progress.

  • Exact starting settings by thickness (tungsten, cup size, gas flow, amps, filler)
  • Visual cues for heat tint, puddle size, and penetration—what to adjust and why
  • Step‑by‑step drills to build torch control, filler rhythm, and consistency
