Welding Troubleshooting - TIG Welding Secrets
Welding troubleshooting for precise, repeatable TIG results
Welding troubleshooting is a skill, not a guessing game. When arc wander, porosity, or oxide streaks show up, every minute spent experimenting burns time, consumables, and credibility. TIG Welding Secrets distills hard‑won shop experience into a clean, step‑by‑step playbook you can trust. Developed with input from certified welding inspectors and production TIG specialists, it translates symptoms into causes—and causes into precise, repeatable fixes. No myths—just proven parameter windows, gas coverage rules, and technique adjustments that hold up under code work and tight tolerances.
Use it at the bench to lock in your process: choose the right tungsten and grind for the alloy, set cup size and flow, stabilize arc starts, and tune AC balance, frequency, and pulse for aluminum, stainless, and carbon steel. From thin‑gauge sheet to schedule pipe, you’ll reduce rework, prevent inclusions and undercut, and produce cleaner beads with less heat input. If you value fast, accurate welding troubleshooting and consistent X‑ray‑quality results, TIG Welding Secrets delivers the clarity and confidence to execute.
- Symptom‑to‑cause maps for porosity, contamination, and lack of fusion.
- Quick setup guides: tungsten type, gas lens, cup number, and CFH.
- Dial‑in charts for AC balance, frequency, and pulse by material.
