This will allow you .....(or me)...... to see the settings for 'TIGging'

  • Stainless Steel
  • Mild Steel
  • Aluminium
  • (And if your nuts Magnesuim and Titanium)


For all the the above you select either
  • Butt weld moglite.gif - no not that sort laugh.gif
  • Corner Weld
  • Lap Weld
  • Fillet Weld


and
The thickness of the steel etc you welding

It then tells you
  • Tungsten Size for torch
  • Cup Orifice size for shroud
  • Filer rod size
  • Amps
  • Gas Type
  • Flow for gas CFM
  • Flow PSI
  • Expected TIG weld speed per inch per minute
