commences
A Rigidity of joint. A Redesign to relieve weld joint of severe stresses
or use crack resistance electrodes.
B Insufficient throat thick-
ness.
B Travel slightly slower to allow greater build up in
throat.
C Weld current is too high. C Decrease welding current.

4.03 TIG (GTAW) Basic Welding Technique
Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) or TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) as it is commonly referred to, is a welding process
in which fusion is produced by an electric arc that is established between a single tungsten (non-consumable)
electrode and the work piece. Shielding is obtained from a welding grade shielding gas or welding grade shielding
gas which is generally Argon. A filler metal may also be added manually in some circumstances depending on
the welding application.
