Tig Welding Tips - Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding

TIG welding tips that deliver cleaner, stronger, repeatable results

Most TIG welding tips are scattered and vague. Everything You NEED to Know About TIG Welding gives you a complete, shop-proven system: machine setup, tungsten prep, gas coverage, torch angle, filler timing, and pedal control—so you can stop guessing and start producing consistent beads on steel, stainless, and aluminum.

Compiled by veteran TIG fabricators, this guide translates real procedures into clear steps, diagrams, and checklists. Learn how to set amperage by joint type and thickness, choose tungsten and cup sizes that prevent porosity, manage heat to avoid warping on thin material, and troubleshoot contamination, wandering arcs, and lack of fusion in minutes. From fit-up and cleanliness to post-flow and cooldown, it’s a practical reference you’ll actually use at the bench.

  • Master puddle control and heat input for fillets, laps, butts, corners, and tubes.
  • Select the right tungsten, gas lens, cup, and filler for each alloy and position.
  • Fix pinholes, undercut, and sugar fast with step-by-step diagnostic checklists.
