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.

Why is a water cooler used in tig?

A water cooler is used in TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding to cool the welding torch and protect it from overheating. This is important because TIG welding generates a significant amount of heat, especially when welding thicker materials or for extended periods of time. The water cooler helps to maintain proper operating temperatures and prolong the life of the welding equipment.


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.
