No , although Co2 may be used , along with other gasses , a welder using this process is not considered a Co2 welder . TIG stands for tungsten Inert Gas , so the welder is considered / called a TIG Welder.

Learn to Weld?

Learn How To WeldIt is possible to learn welding on your own. Many people have taught themselves in their garages. Welding skills are in demand as people today are repairing items rather than discarding them, such as patio furniture or metal planter frames.Many brands and types of welders are available to individuals on the market. One such type of welder is a mig welder. Basic equipment is needed for this process, a MIG welding unit, MIG wire, heavy protective welding gloves, a welding helmet, a bottle of CO2 (found at sporting goods stores for paintball), an argon/CO2 cylinder and regulator, clamps to hold the item(s), and a welding hammer or files for cleanup of the joints. A heavy welding jacket, long jeans and closed-toe shoes or boots should be worn for protection.By following safety rules and practicing, you can become skilled in welding very quickly. Repair car exhaust pipes, auto bodies, fences, patio furniture and anything that requires welding. If you purchase a truck and can take the welder to different locations, you can earn a living as a welder. There is no certification required.There are different techniques for welding, and you will learn to adjust the welder for the application. Reversing the polarity of the machine allows different types of weld to be made without buying other machines. You can do all your metal repairs for yourself, earn supplemental income or begin an entirely new career. Auto body shops are always looking for talented welders; they may provide extra training.

What is the difference between arc welder and inverter arc welder?

Both use electrical current to melt the base metal and the filler metal. Both could be considered ARC welding. Most welding is done with an electrode (stick) and as the electrode becomes consumed the weldor has to stop and replace it with a new one. MIG welding uses a spool of wire and can be run for hours on end. MIG is usually easier to learn.

What makes when these mix CO2 and H2O?

H2O + CO2 --> H2CO3 Also if you mix H2O with CO2(s) (common name dry ice) you get CO2 gas and an acidic CO2/H2O mixture.


How thick of steel will a gaseless 110 welder weld?

In my experiences with 110 machines I've found that for strength 1/16" is a good thickness. Argon/co2 seems to work better than coated wire for metals thicker than that 1/8" - 5/32". 1/4" is usually too thick to weld as the heat is pulled away from the weld area producing poor or no weld. Remember, this is a "short arc" process. The arc is not on long enough to melt thick material.
