Nitrogen is another gas that can be added to argon in small amounts (up to 2%) to enhance the weld properties.Nitrogen increases the strength, hardness, and corrosion resistance of the weld metal, especially for duplex and super duplex stainless steel. However, nitrogen can also cause porosity...
TIG welding, also known as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW), utilizes a non-consumable tungsten electrode to create the arc, while a separate filler material may be added manually. The weld area is shielded by an inert gas, typically argon or helium, to prevent contamination. B. Equipment Re...
these are melted in the light arc before the weld pool. Stainless steel is often welded without the addition of additives; the material is connected by means of fusion. This process uses a highly intensive light arc that can be guided extremely stably. Experienced TIG welders find this procedur...
The objective of this research is used to determine the influence of various welding parameters on the weld bead of AISI 316 welded joint. The result shows that speed is most influencing factor to have highest bend strength and current that is to be used while ...
One thing I have to mention about welding stainless steel is that the back side of a fully penetrated weld needs argon shielding just as much as the front. top portion purged...bottom no purgeIf the penetration side is not shielded with argon, it will "sugar" which is a slang word for...
Tungsten inert gas welding (TIG welding) is a gas shielded welding process and is one of the fusion welding processes. It is used wherever optimum quality and spatter-free weld seams are required. TIG welding is suitable, among other things, for stainless steels, aluminum and nickel alloys as...
