Tungsten Eater Shirt - TIG Welding Secrets

Wearing the tungsten eater shirt? Back it up with TIG Welding Secrets

If you’ve ever chewed a tungsten on a shaky start, you know the cost: lost time, regrinds, and inconsistent results. TIG Welding Secrets turns that pain into precision. Built from thousands of hours under the hood, it distills the exact setups, motions, and decisions that produce clean arc starts, tight puddle control, and repeatable, code-worthy welds—without superstition or guesswork.

Inside, you’ll get a step-by-step framework for tungsten prep by alloy and amperage, gas and cup choices that minimize turbulence, torch angle discipline for narrow joints, and pedal/filler timing that keeps the puddle fed without sugar or gray haze. Stainless stays bright with controlled heat input and purge strategies; aluminum gets predictable with AC frequency, balance, and waveform tuning. You’ll also find troubleshooting trees for contamination and porosity, distortion control for thin stock, and out-of-position techniques that hold shape when gravity fights back. Clear diagrams, short checklists, and shop-proven benchmarks keep it practical and fast.

  • Fewer regrinds, cleaner starts, tighter beads—across mild, stainless, and aluminum.
  • Confident settings: amps, cup, gas lens, stick-out, and pulse that actually serves the joint.
  • Production-ready habits: setup, fit-up, heat control, and verification you can trust.
