The TIG welding process produces extremely high temperatures which permits pinpoint control of heat over a small heat effected zone. TIG welding is widely used when fine, high quality welding is required, particularly when welding metals such as aluminium and stainless steel.
This DVD covers the following:
- The advantages of the TIG welding process
- Understanding the TIG process
- TIG welding equipment
- The types of welding current available for TIG welding
(a) Direct current straight polarity
(b) Direct current reverse polarity
(c) Alternating current
- Understanding the high frequency application
- Torches and Electrodes
- Weld contamination
- Shielding gases
- Workshop safety
- Personal safety
- Setting up to weld
- TIG welding examples
(a) Edge weld without filler rod
(b) Corner weld
(c) Lap joint weld
(d) Tee fillet weld
(e) Butt welds
