TIG Welding

Tungsten insert gas (TIG) welding is the process that uses argon as a shielding gas. During the welding process, an arc is formed between a pointed tungsten electrode and the area to be welded. A shielding gas is used to help create a clean weld, as it prevents oxidization from occurring.

The Advantages：

- Amperage and heat can be precisely controlled, TIG welding can obtain an accurate weld.

- Because of the low amperage the TIG welding torch uses, it is great for thin metal workpieces.

- TIG welding is a versatile process with the combination of remote control and low amperage with easy operation, which allows welders to quickly switch between thin and thick pieces of metal.

- Thanks to argon shielding gas to isolate the air outside the welding area which to reduce the burning loss of alloy elements, TIG welding can obtain high-quality welded joints.

At Atlas Metal TIG welding generally is used to low volume and mostly to weld the thin stainless-steel sheet and aluminum sheet fabrication.
