๐ฅ KNOW YOUR TIG WELDING ESSENTIALS! ๐ฅ
Precision welding starts with understanding the tools and consumables behind every weld.
โก
From the TIG torch to the filler rod, every component plays an important role in achieving
clean, controlled, and high-quality welding results.
๐ง TIG TORCH COMPONENTS
Understanding the torch head, collet, collet body, gas lens, ceramic cup, and tungsten
electrode helps you prepare the right setup for your welding application.
๐ TUNGSTEN ELECTRODES
Different tungsten types offer different arc characteristics. Choosing the right electrode
depends on your welding current, material, and AC/DC requirements.
โ๏ธ AIR-COOLED VS WATER-COOLED TORCHES
Air-cooled torches offer a simpler, more portable setup, while water-cooled torches provide
improved heat management for demanding, high-current applications.
๐ฉ TIG FILLER RODS โ THE RIGHT ROD FOR THE RIGHT METAL
Different materials require suitable filler metals:
๐น ER70S-6 โ Mild Steel
๐น ER308L โ Stainless Steel (304/304L)
๐น ER309L โ Dissimilar Metals
๐น ER316L โ Stainless Steel (316/316L)
๐น ER4043 โ Aluminium Alloys
๐น ER5356 โ Aluminium Alloys
โ ๏ธ Remember: Selecting the correct filler rod, tungsten electrode, shielding gas, and torch
setup is essential for achieving reliable welding results. Conventional aluminium TIG welding
generally requires an AC-capable machine.
