TIG (tungsten inert gas) torches are torches used for arc welding to produce high-quality, clean welds on many materials including steel, aluminum and copper. With a TIG torch, Argon gas protects the weld puddle from airborne contaminants, while a tungsten electrode is used to heat the metal.

What accerories do i need to run tig on my 130 amp cigweld weldskill inverter?
First a tig torch and pure argon gas as well as a argon regulator
What polarity is used for mild steel GTAW?
The only way to tig is to have your ground clamp hooked to the positive side of the welding machine. The negative lead will go to the tig torch. If it is reversed you will find out very quickly when you strike an arc. Most metals will be welded using this Polarity (straight). Most Aluminum TIG welding is performed using A C current.
What are Miller TIG systems used for?
Miller TIG system are well used systems. The Miller TIG systems are used for welding, calculating the costs of welding and materials, and showing how to weld.
In which industry does TIG welder typically finds employment?
TIG welding, i.e. tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, is primarily used in the aerospace industry. Thus TIG welder would typically find employment there.
Why does the torch have exactly 8000 holes?
games
Is the blackberry torch 980 the same as the blackberry torch red?
yes, exactly the same just in a different colour.
What is the best grade aluminium used in Tig welding?
nothing
What does tig stand for?
when refering to tig welding, tig stands for Tunsten Insert Gas
Where was Operation Torch exactly?
American troops landed in Morocco and Algeria.
How can you Convert stick welder to tig welder?
providing that you have the proper tig welding equipment (torch,tungsten and inert gas) it is simply switching the polarities on the welding machine. the lead to the torch will be negative and the ground will be positive this is called straight polarity,this application will work with most metals except aluminum which requires a high frequency welding machine A couple of things a home built TIG machine will not have. 1) High frequency start - you will have to scratch start which could leave tungsten contamination in the weld 2) Remote control - one of the nice things about most TIG machines is the ability to adjust the power/heat on the fly. 3) Gas solenoid valves - TIG is usually done with pure Argon gas. This is probably the most expensive shielding gas in normal use. As a result, its usually nice to shut if off. TIG machines have solenoids that do that with timers that shut the gas flow off after a few seconds. I would highly recommend you search "craigslist" for a used Miller TIG. Miller because you can still get parts for them if necessary (I have a 30year old unit going strong!). Just be aware they tend to be heavy with large copper coiled transformers inside. From a cost standpoint, the regulator, gas bottle, torch etc. could set you back $500. An old Miller Dialarc HF is probably that much ready to run (HF = High Frequency starting circuit).
Tig is an input or output device?
