Correctly loading and securing the spool of MIG wire in the welder is essential to the proper operation of the Lincoln MIG welder and to the consistency of the weld bead. An improperly installed spool of MIG wire will cause the welding arc to jump or the spool of wire could spin off the spindle, causing the spool of wire to unravel, ruining the spool of wire. 1 Unplug the Lincoln MIG welder and open the welder's side lid to access the spool compartment. 2 Remove the wing nut thumbscrew spool holder, orient the four-pound spool of MIG wire so the wire pulls from the top of the spool, slide the spool onto the spool holder and tighten the wing nut to secure wire in the Lincoln MIG welder. If the wire pulls from the bottom of the spool, the wire will enter the wire guide at an angle that will cause the wire to feed poorly or the wire could snap as it pulls through the entrance to the guide. 3 Loosen the tension arm assembly and pull the tension arm down to release the pivot arm assembly. 4 Remove the outside wire guide by loosening the thumbscrews holding it in place and set the drive wheel to the diameter of the wire on the spool. 5 Pull and straighten six inches of MIG wire from the wire spool and slide it through the wire guide, over the bottom drive roll and into the wire drive outlet. 6 Push down the pivot arm assembly, slide the tension arm up over the pivot arm and turn the tension arm clockwise until the bearing of the pivot arm assembly applies light pressure onto the MIG wire. 7 Plug in and turn on the Lincoln MIG welder. 8 Depress the trigger of the MIG gun to feed the wire through the MIG gun lead. Close the lid of the Lincoln MIG welder when you see the spool of wire spinning. 9 Release the trigger of the MIG gun when you see the MIG wire extend 1/2 inch beyond the end of the MIG gun cup.

They are a long, skinny steel rod with a flux coating. They are placed into the positive (+) clamp of the welding machine and are used to weld with. The negative (-) clamp gets attached to the metal being welded. 6010 This rod or electrode provides deep penetration of the metal, while at the same time providing minimum spatter, or debris. This electrode is used mostly in heavy applications such as structural steel or farm equipment. The welder must be set on DC (direct current) to weld with this rod. 6011 The 6011 rod works well on dirty, rusty, or painted surfaces and is a favorite of pipe welders in the field. It is also a heavy-duty electrode and can be used in the same fashion as 6010 rod. Like 6010, it has deep penetrating qualities and low spatter but can run on either AC (alternating current) or DC machines. 6013LV This particular electrode provides much less penetration and works great on light materials such as sheet metal. It can also be welded using either AC or DC settings and is very compatible with low-power hobby welders. Not intended for structural or heavy steel. 7014 The 7014 electrode is powder-coated to provide a flatter weld, which can be useful on ill-fitting joints or other jobs that cannot be ground down afterward. The 7014 can provide faster welding speeds and is very easy to strike an arc on. This rod is an AC or DC application. 7018 This electrode is the most commonly used rod by welders today. It produces a high quality weld in mild steel applications and works very well out in the field. This type of rod cannot be welded with when wet and must be kept in a rod oven to reduce moisture when not being used. This DC welding rod is the choice of many beginners as well. 7018AC This rod has all the same weld qualities that can be found in the 7018 rod but is intended for AC welders. It is easy to use and starts with a nice arc. This rod can be welded in all positions as well.

While some welding electrodes are ideal for general-purpose welding, most electrodes are designed for specific applications. In many welding applications, the live arc of electricity that forms at the end of an electrode is drawn down to a work piece. The electric current essentially melts the work piece and, in some methods, the electrode, to create a weld. MIG (metal inert gas) and TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding methods employ consumable and non-consumable electrodes, respectively. Consumable vs. Non-Consumable Consumable electrodes melt and drip down onto a work piece. The drops form a pool that creates an effective weld when cooled. In TIG welding, the electrodes stream a live electric current down to a work piece, but do not melt onto the work piece. Uses The 6010, 6013 and 7018 electrodes are some of the most versatile and widely-used electrodes. General welding applications can be executed with 6010 electrodes. These electrodes are also used on piping, wrought iron, farm and road equipment. The 6013 electrode creates a soft arc at the tip of the electrode. This electrode is designed for working with sheet metal or for repairing thinner materials. For crack-resistant, high-quality welding, 7018 electrodes are commonly used. Identification The AWS (American Welding Society) has created a universal identification system for electrodes in the U.S. This system allows the consumer to easily identify the proper electrode for applications. An electrode's first digits indicate tensile strength. For example, 6010 electrodes produce welds that offer 60,000 psi (pounds per square inch) tensile strength. The second-to-last digit in an electrode identification number indicates the position in which the operator must hold the electrode while welding. For example, a "2" would tell the welder that the electrode must be held in a horizontal position. The final identification number indicates the type of outer coating on the electrode. Coatings Coating an electrode with certain materials increases welding efficiency. For flat welding applications, the welder may choose an electrode with an iron oxide coating that promotes a stable electric arc. Electrodes with a rutile coating promote a smooth, quiet electric arc. The AWS identification system indicates an electrode's outer coating. Electrodes with a "1" as their last identification number are coated with a cellulose potassium coating; electrodes with a "5" feature a low hydrogen sodium coating. Low hydrogen electrodes, like the 7018 electrode, feature low-moisture coatings to curb the amount of hydrogen in a weld.

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 08:34:01 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/general-welding-forum/job-description-of-welding-laborers/view#650 Welding laborers are important workers in many industrial and manufacturing facilities.The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that the demand for workers in the welding profession will increase by 5 percent in the next two decades, resulting in the creation of 22,000 new jobs. Function In general, welding laborers are responsible for permanently joining pieces of metal together by applying heat or electricity. Welding laborers work from blue prints and job specifications to perform their work. Types Welding laborers are generally classified by the type of equipment that they use. Types of welders include, arc-welders, solderers, brazers and welding machine operators. Geography Welders work in plants throughout the world, in industries such as structural materials manufacturing, machinery and vehicle manufacturing, construction, paper manufacturing, natural resources pipelines and utilities. In the United States, the states with the highest concentration of welders are Wyoming, Louisiana, Oklahoma and North and South Dakota. Time Frame Most welders work 40 hours per week, though production needs and deadlines may require welders to work overtime hours, with one in five welders in the United States working 50 hours or more on a regular basis. Welders typically work 12 hour days and may engage in shift work that includes time on evenings, weekends and holidays. Median wage is around $15 per hour.

However, a variety of measures are available to ensure a strong weld. Steel Alloys Steel is an alloy, or metallic mixture, containing primarily iron. A variety of other metals, such as carbon, are used to promote certain properties in the alloy. Carbon has a strengthening effect when added to iron. Carbon Rating There are different types of steel available, including several varieties of carbon steel. Low-carbon steel contains a maximum concentration of 0.3 percent carbon, while high-carbon steel contains a maximum concentration of 1 percent carbon. Carbon in Steel Carbon strengthens steel, but also reduces its ductility, or pliability. The low ductility of high-carbon steel makes it more difficult to weld. Effects of Welding on High-Carbon Steel When welding high-carbon steel, a high concentration of martensite may form in the weld. Martensite makes the metal extremely brittle, causing a weak weld that may break as soon as it cools. Welding High-Carbon Steel According to ESAB Welding and Cutting, Inc., a low hydrogen electrode must be used when welding high-carbon steels. Additionally, annealing, or heating, the metal prior to welding slows the cooling process and prevents the concentration of martensite. Post heating will also reduce stress and strengthen the weld.

Mon, 06 Feb 2012 14:50:44 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/lincoln-welder-forum/adjusting-amperage-settings-on-lincoln-stick-welders/view#645 A Lincoln stick welder, or buzz box, is a welcome tool for any home workshop. Having the ability to perform at-home metal repairs can make the Lincoln stick welder a value-added tool that you can earn you some extra cash on the side. By following a basic setup procedure, you can adjust the Lincoln stick welder's amperage for a clean-looking and hot-penetrating weld. 1 Assemble the above materials on the list and place the safety equipment on your body. Be sure that the welding helmet fits comfortably and the side tension knobs allow for a smooth release for dropping the helmet past your eyes from the raised position. 2 Place a welding rod into the hand-held stinger and place the scrap metal pieces on a nonflammable surface that is at a comfortable height for you to weld. Connect the ground clamp to the pieces to be welded and switch on the buzz box. 3 Turn the large white amperage selector lever to 90 amps and strike an arc on the scrap piece of metal. Run a bead of weld for approximately 2 inches. 4 Use the slag hammer and remove the top-crusted slag portion of the weld. Is the slag easy to remove or difficult? An easily removed slag crust indicates that the welder amperage setting is close to the correct setting. The weld should have good penetration to the metal with no crevices at the point where the weld meets the metal surface. 5 Adjust the amperage setting "up" one full click or to the next highest range. Strike an arc and lay another bead for 2 inches. Observe the slag and the weld condition as mentioned in Step 4. 6 Adjust the welder once more and lay another bead of weld. Keep performing this operation until you receive a weld that has become "too hot." A "too hot" weld will have an excessive amount of splatter surrounding the weld bead, or the weld will have burned through the piece of metal. Weld splatter is small deposits of metal beads that embed themselves into the surface of the metal being welded. 7 Reduce the welding amperage back down until you receive a good-looking weld and minimal splatter with easy slag removal. Practice will show you the correct amperage adjustment for various types of steel and the thickness of material. A general rule of thumb is that the thicker the metal, the higher the welding amperage should be. Read more: How to Adjust Amperage Settings on Lincoln Stick Welders | eHow.com http://www.ehow.com/how_4962699_adjust-settings-lincoln-stick-welders.html#ixzz1lbicGrhU A sort of advice for you.Never adjust the amperage on the stick welder when you are arc-welding. Turning the adjustment lever while welding can create permanent damage to the welder itself.Of course doing these things need something and that something are below.

This is why there is a steady influx of MIG Welders buying MIG machines from companies. Here is a comprehensive list of the five top manufacturers where welders mostly purchase from. Clarke Welders Clarke MIG Welders have good reputation in the industry, and they offer affordable machines. Its most famous model is the MIG 135TE which has a non-live torch, a professional look, and a turbo cooling fan. This is ideal for DIY repairs on cars, and other home jobs involving welding. The other 110 Voltage models are ideal for metals measuring up to 3/16" thick sheet metals such as auto body parts. On the other hand, the 220 Volt ones are better for carbon steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and iron castings that are about 7/16" thick. Aside from these, what is often most appreciated with this brand is its good warranty and great performance which enables it to compete with the major brands. Lincoln Electric MIG Welders produced by Lincoln Electric are best to be used by those who put more prime on the cosmetic appearance of the finished weld. Great, smooth, and clean looking welds can be made from these models because the arc initiated is smooth and will not easily burn thin metals. Time-efficiency is also another characteristic of Lincoln MIG Welder models which is very appealing. This because there are no slags to chip off after the welding process as the models have spatter levels that are considerably lower than those machines with flux cord. Lastly, they are best to work with aluminum and stainless steel. Miller Welders The Miller MIG Welding machines offer top quality models and they have a great variety to choose from. Most of their products are mainly used by/for light to medium fabrication, garage shops, auto body shops, farms and ranches, and other home welding projects. Miller MIG models are classified into heavy duty and light-medium duty. The former can easily weld 3/8" thick or Ѕ" thick metals in a single pass, depending on the model. The light duty ones can weld 3/16" to ј" thick metals in a single pass. These brand's products can last longer but costs more than the others. Hobart Welders There are a lot of great reviews on this brand and it is also one of the most popularly bought MIG welding machines. They are reliable, durable, and portable which makes work easier to finish. They can also work in mild or solid stainless steel, and can be easily adjusted to accommodate other materials. They also have great warranty offers. Though, unfortunately, they do not weld aluminum well. ESAB Versatility and dependability are the marketable qualities of ESAB MIG Welders which puts them stably in the top manufacturers of MIG welding machines. These MIGs can weld different materials and some are even capable of doing TIG and Stick welding. They are, however, designed mostly to withstand construction and other rugged industrial environments where MIG welding machines are used for a long period of time. Since ESAB is a major brand, its parts can be bought in a lot of sources. Choose well. Because aside from good workmanship, one of the best ways for MIG Welders to show case their experience is in the way they choose their equipment. This is an article that gives more information of choosing the right welder for your work. Read the article above and see the top five welder machine. Choose the best welder!!! Enjoy reading! Anyway it is your choice and your right to choose I just give a hint of information!!

The Arc welder uses an electric arc between the welding electrode and the grounded base metal. The arc is so hot that it melts the base metal as well as the welding rod held in the electrode clamp. The welding rod is coated with a porous coating that, when heated from the arc, forms a gaseous shield to protect the molten metal. When cooled it forms a glass-like covering over the welded bead. 1 Grind the black coating off the two ends of black pipe. Grind a taper like a pencil into the two ends of black pipe to be joined. 2 Clamp the two pipes together so they can not move. Lay the two pipes into a piece of angle and clamp the pipe solid. 3 Tack weld the pipe together and remove the clamp and angle iron. 4 Strike an arc with the welding rod. Run a bead forward, moving just fast enough and hot enough to keep from burning through the pipe. Run a bead that covers as much of the pipe to be welded as possible on the first pass. Turn the pipe to bring the area left to be welded on top. Overlap the bead a little bit to seal the weld. To overlap you must chip the slag off the weld before welding the overlap. 5 Chip the glass-like slag off the weld. Seal the weld with primer after the weld cools to prevent rust.

For an amateur welder, Miller Welding offers machines ranging from a 90-amp output for thin gauge welding up to a 300-amp output for welding Ѕ-inch thick steel. The Millermatic 211 is advertised as the most versatile hobby welder manufactured by Miller and is capable of both gas metal arc welding (GMAW, or MIG) or flux core arc welding (FCAW). In addition, the Millermatic 211 can be converted from standard steel welding to aluminum welding with a few adjustments. Set Up the Welding Machine 1 Install the welding gun by inserting the end of the gun into the socket on the front of the welding machine and plugging the gun trigger connection into the receptacle. 2 Open the access hatch on the left side of the machine. 3 Turn the gun-securing knob clockwise until the gun is secured. 4 Place the welding wire onto the wire spool. Feed the wire under the reel toward the front of the machine. 5 Feed the welding wire through the inlet guide, over the drive roll and into the wire conduit cable. To do this, loosen the pressure knob and feed the wire through the guides indicated on the drive assembly, and then tighten the pressure knob. 6 Unscrew the nozzle tip from the end of the welding gun. 7 Turn the welding machine on and squeeze the trigger until the wire feeds out the tip of the welding torch. Screw the torch tip back onto the gun nuzzle. 8 Tighten the tensioner inside the welding machine and close the access hatch. 9 Plug the gas hose from the shielding gas tank onto the nozzle on the back of the welding machine Prepare for Welding 1 Arrange the sheet metal that you are welding into its final configuration. 2 Clean all rust, paint or dirt off of the edges of the metal with a wire brush. 3 Clamp the metal pieces together to prevent them from shifting during the welding process. 4 Put on a welder's mask and gloves. 5 Open the shielding gas regulator to allow gas to flow into the machine and turn the machine on. Weld 1 Place the welding torch within 1/8-inch of the welding seam and pull the trigger of the welding torch to start an electrical arc. 2 Slowly move the welding torch along the welding seam in a zigzag motion. The metal will melt and form a bead of liquid steel. 3 Continue forming the welding bead until you reach the end of the seam.

Sun, 05 Feb 2012 16:15:57 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/mig-welding-forum/mig-welding-sheet-metal/view#637 Sheet metal generally refers to any thin, flat piece of metal that has a thickness of 6 millimeters or less. Metal inert gas (MIG) welding uses a consumable wire electrode that is fed continuously through a welding gun along with a shielding gas. The primary challenge in MIG welding sheet metal is to make a strong weld without burning through the metal. Additional problems with welding sheet metal include warping and a poor appearance. 1 Select the thinnest wire that is practical. Thinner wire heats the metal less and gives you better control over the weld bead. The deposition rate is also lower, which makes it easier to recover from mistakes. Sheet metal that is less than .04 inches thick should use wire that is .023 inches in diameter. Thicker sheet metal may be welded with .030 inch wire. 2 Use a high argon shielding gas which will produce less spatter. Argon carries less heat than carbon dioxide and a common mixture for sheet metal is 75 percent argon and 25 percent carbon dioxide. 3 Keep the arc in the middle of the weld puddle to allow the puddle to protect the base metal from the full force of the arc. This technique is contrary to the normal method of MIG welding, where the arc should remain on the leading edge to achieve greater penetration. 4 Weld in a straight line with the fastest possible speed that maintains a good bead profile. Sheet metal should not be welded by whipping or weaving the torch, as this will increase the heat of the metal and therefore increase the chances of burn-through and warping. 5 Keep the heat evenly distributed by skip welding. Make a 1 inch weld and skip 5 inches until you have a series of 1 inch welds along the entire length to be welded. Go back and make a second series of welds next to the first series. Repeat this cycle a total of 6 times until the entire length has a continuous weld.

Sun, 05 Feb 2012 15:53:49 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/tig-welding-forum/properties-of-tig-welding-electrodes/view#636 Tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, otherwise known as gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), is typically performed with a nonconsumable electrode made from pure tungsten metal. However, tungsten may be alloyed with other metals to improve the performance of the electrode. Current If the welding electrode carries alternating current (AC), tungsten can be alloyed zirconium oxide to reduce pitting or cratering of the metal surface (arc strike) and the stability of the weld. If the electrode carries direct current (DC), thorium oxide can be used for the same purpose. Melting Point Ideally, a TIG welding electrode should have a high melting point and thermal conductivity, and low electrical resistance. The melting point of tungsten is 6,170 degrees Fahrenheit. Other Properties Other characteristics to consider when choosing a TIG welding electrode include its diameter, its current carrying capacity, its ignition and reignition properties, and the constancy of the electric arc it produces. The quality of a finished weld also depends on the type of filler wire and shielding gas, and its flow rate.

However, stick welders tend to create the greatest amount of slag of any welding process; in addition, they do not provide the high-precision welding typical of MIG and TIG processes. If you do not want to replace your stick welder entirely with a MIG or TIG welder, you may simply convert your stick welder to a TIG welder with certain tools that you can obtain from your local hardware store. 1 Connect the large hose, from your flowmeter, to the large end of the power block. 2 Connect the designated end of the hose of the TIG welding torch to the small end of the power block. 3 Connect the other end of the TIG welding torch hose to the regulator on the argon bottle. 4 Connect the ground lead of the TIG torch to the positive end of the power block, and the power lead of the TIG torch to the negative end of the power block.

Before purchasing a stick welder, you need to know the largest size material that you will be using. Machine Size Average welding tasks require about 200 amps; a welder with 225 to 300 amps would allow you to do routine jobs and a little more when needed. If you are going to be welding 1-inch structural steel, you will need a larger welder. AC/DC Whether electric or gas, a welder with an AC/DC output is desired by most experienced welders. DC offers easier starts, fewer arc outages and sticking, less spatter, better-looking welds, and easier vertical and overhead welding. AC is better for welding thin metals. Duty Cycle The duty cycle is the length of time that a machine can weld continuously at its amp rating. For example, a 200-amp stick welder with a 20-percent duty cycle can weld continuously for 2 minutes of a stick welder's 10-minute cycle.

Sun, 05 Feb 2012 12:56:00 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/general-welding-forum/general-welding-safety-precautions/view#633 Welding is a satisfying career but it is full of dangers. With the right welding safety precautions, welding is a rewarding career where many find an excellent income, job security, and even the opportunity to travel. Some welders and the companies that employ them forget to follow the precautions, resulting in injuries that can be devastating. One of the most important rules for any welder is to make sure that only those who are properly trained and authorized use welding equipment. Many accidents occur because people use the equipment who do not have the proper training. This often happens in home welding shops, where friends or family of the welder will try to work on a project themselves. Yet it also occurs in professional settings when welders let others do their work or in the case of employers who wish to try and cut costs. Without the proper authorization and training, injuries often occur. Damage to property from fire is another risk. Fire is always a danger with welding. It is important to be careful with where the welding torch is set, as some welders will set it down and discover too late that the force of the welding arc can actually cause the torch to move, setting fire to anything in its path that is flammable. Clamps should always be used when setting down a torch. Flammable material should always be kept out of the reach of sparks, which can fly up to 35 feet. This includes old oil drums and other barrels that may still have fumes from flammable liquids in them. The area that a welder is working in is very important. Never work in a building that has wooden floors. If there is no choice, then the floors must be protected by fireproof material such as sand or fireproof fabric. It is important that all areas are covered, as a single hot spark can start a dangerous fire. Keep fire extinguishers or other extinguishing methods such as a bucket of sand or water nearby at all times when welding work is being done. To avoid burns that injure workers, all hot metal should be marked in order to make sure everyone in the area is aware it is still dangerous to touch with bare hands. Soapstone is a common method for marking hot metal and easily cleans off once the metal is cool. Hot items such as rejected electrodes, tools, or steel scrap should never be left on the floor. Not only can accidents occur from burns or falls, but fires can also be started. Remind everyone in the area that the proper clothing and personal safety equipment must be worn at all times in order to follow proper welding safety procedure and avoid injuries. Welding safety is not a difficult aspect of the welding job. Even so, it is often overlooked by welders and those who observe them as being unnecessary. Fires and accidents are serious risks and every precaution should be taken to minimize the risks.

Good old fashion stick welding like great grandpa did in World War ll is still the dominant process. Yes, the new pipe welding machines have electronic controls and other fancy stuff, and they have aluminum windings - and sure, they are out on the pipeline - mostly Lincoln brand, and the rest are Miller. However, on most pipelines these are stick welding machines. It is possible that you'll find a machine that pre-dates WW ll out on a pipeline in 2012. Why and why stick? Stick is easy to transport, set up, and it is tough. Stick welders can weld in a breeze. Other welding processes use a shielding gas, so they can't weld in any wind. Stick welders don't break down much - they are so simple. Stick is an extremely strong process. What about the machines? Although there are some pretty snazzy modern stick welders out on the pipeline, you'll also find the Lincoln SA200 Pipeliner. You'll see some made in the 60s and 50s, and once in a great while, as far back as 1939. Why? The Pipeliner SA200 welders are great machines. Heavy copper windings make for a smooth arc. They are built like a brick porta-potty, so they run and run. Modern machines are made with aluminum windings. As the windings get warm the electrical resistance increases, so the machine must be adjusted. When the welder takes a break and comes back, they must be adjusted again. An old SA200 with copper windings doesn't have this problem, so it welds on the same setting all day long, no matter what - they always weld like butter. WARNING: The world of Lincoln SA200 welders is an interesting one. Lincoln wound some of them in the 1970s with aluminum, but went back to copper with the Pipeliner Classic Series ll. Stay away from aluminum if you're going to get a Pipeliner. Later model Classic units are diesel. The high cost of fuel makes this matter. IF you are running a rig 12 hours a day, diesel can make a big cost difference because diesel cost less to operate. However, a gas model will be less expensive to buy. Sun, 05 Feb 2012 04:30:43 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/tig-welding-forum/how-to-become-a-tig-welder/view#630 Gas tungsten arc welding, known as TIG welding, is a specialized welding technique requiring refined welding skills. TIG welding brings together metals of very light weights or of different compositions in a precise fashion. The aircraft and race car industries require TIG welding skills to build safe and durable products. Learning the basics of gas welding techniques is the foundation for producing high quality, precision TIG welds. Obtaining certification is an important consideration if a living is to be made from TIG welding. 1 Learn the basics of gas welding. The basic skills used in gas welding (oxyacetylene welding) are the foundation of a TIG welder's craft. Start with courses in welding at the local community college or a trade school focused on welding and piping skills. High schools students can find courses in many public schools and vocational-technical training facilities. 2 Apprentice or obtain an entry-level welding job. Apprenticeships and entry-level jobs help strengthen welding skills and build a welder's knowledge. Look for jobs that expose you to TIG welding. 3 Study good welds and practice building TIG welds. Learn by examining good TIG welds on aircraft and race car frames. Practice creating similar welds with the goal of duplicating them. This process helps builds TIG welding skills. 4 Get certified as a GTAW, or Gas Tungsten Arc Welder. Certification identifies a qualified TIG welder, one who possesses the training and skills necessary to get a job done correctly. Certification can be obtained through trade schools and college programs by taking all required courses for certification. 5 Maintain certification. Certification cards note expiration dates; retake certification tests to maintain a TIG welding cert. Many employers will pay for maintaining an employee's TIG and other welding certifications. Look for local testing centers where welding certifications can be maintained.

Sun, 05 Feb 2012 04:21:31 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/mig-welding-forum/how-to-buy-a-mig-welder/view#629 A metal inert gas (MIG) welder allows a person to perform semi-automatic or automatic arc welding. A MIG welder makes a nice addition for a home garage. You can use a MIG welder to make artwork or restore the body on a classic car. 1 Decide on a gas or gas-less MIG welder. Gas MIG welders require disposable or refillable gas bottles. Non-gas MIG welders don'y use gas and cost less for the initial purchase. The wire for a gas MIG welder costs less than the wire for a non-gas MIG welder. Most experts find gas MIG welders produce cleaner welds than non-gas ones. 2 Consider the amp rating. MIG welders with a lower amp rating weigh less than higher amp rated welders. While a 90 to 100-amp MIG welder works for basic repairs, you lose versatility for wire speed and power options with a lower amp. 3 Evaluate the type of metalwork you need to do. The more versatile the MIG welder, the more intricate metalwork you can weld. Adjustable settings allow a novice welder more control over the variables. 4 Look at brand name MIG welders. Lincoln Electric has been an industry leader in MIG welders for years and continues to lead the field in flexibility and high-quality welders. Name brand companies often offer attractive warranties, like the 3-year parts and labor warranty Lincoln Electric offers. 5 Compare used and discount prices to new models. With a new machine, you know exactly what to expect. For used machines, you don't know the type of work the welder did with the machine or the wear and tear on the machine. Discount companies often sell discontinued models that are new and provide a good quality for a lower price.

The American Welding Society refers to it as GTAW and engineers use the GTAW nomenclature on blueprint specifications. According to the TIG Handbook, this two-handed process welds a wider variety of metals and alloys than other arc welding methods. Certification in TIG marks a welder as competent and employable. The test will verify that a welder can set up his welding machine, organize supplies, follow safety guidelines, weld in the proper position and follow assigned procedures. Pre-Test Steps Preparation and practice for a TIG certification test cannot be over-emphasized, according to certified welding inspector Jody Collier. Collier recommends asking the testing supervisor what will be covered, then contacting a tech school or community college to arrange practice time for the joints and positions on the test. Test Day Jerry Cramblett, director of the Earlbeck Technical Center in Baltimore, Maryland, advises test takers to bring their personal safety gear -- work boots, helmet, safety glasses and flame-retardant clothes -- in addition to photo identification and hand tools. As with any career-influencing occasion, arriving early will set the proper tone and give you more confidence. The TIG test has no time limit, but even candidates who don't rush can expect to finish within four hours, notes the Earlbeck Technical Center. Protocol Your supervisor will provide instruction on operating the equipment, explain the required fit-up designated for your test and give you all test materials and practice material for your set up. Be prepared to set the amperage and gas flow needed for your process. The testing supervisor will help you position the test piece where it must remain throughout the test. Follow any instructions given, whether in writing or verbally and ask questions for clarification. After completing your weld, advise the supervisor, who will arrange for an inspection. Courteous test takers clean up their booth prior to leaving the facility. Tips The GoWelding.org website adds this advice: Interviews for TIG pipe welding usually include questions about purging -- "How do you prevent sugar?" (e.g., oxidation) -- and "walking the cup." It adds that using the "walking the cup" technique will lead to a failing grade on the "6GR Restricted Boiler Tubing Test Position." Here I give to you the tips on passing a TIG welding test and interview. Sometimes we forget to bring the most basic tools and safety gears in the examination day that's why I posted this article for us to remember the basic things that we should bring. Read the article above and learn from it. I HOPE THIS ARTICLE MAY HELP YOU PASS THE EXAM AND INTERVIEW! GOOD LUCK!!!

Sat, 04 Feb 2012 10:51:37 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/tig-welding-forum/purge-welding/view#626 Welding stainless steel pipe requires a process that allows precise control over heat and weld puddle formation. Tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding provides the precision heat control required to form a strong weld without warping the pipe. A proper TIG weld will melt into both sides of the weld joint while not blowing into the inside opening of the pipe. Test welding two pieces of stainless steel pipe will ensure the proper weld settings and ensure the weld does not enter the interior of the pipe. 1 Set one piece of stainless pipe onto a pipe vise. Loop the vise chain around the pipe. Slide one end of the pipe two inches past the edge of the vise. Hook the chain into the vise catch. Turn the vise handle clockwise to lock the pipe in the vise. 2 Run an angle grinder with a hard wheel around the end of the vise to place a 15-degree bevel on the end of the pipe. 3 Remove the beveled pipe from the pipe vise. Repeat the process to place a bevel on one end of the second piece of pipe. Leave the second piece of pipe secured in the pipe vise. 4 Push the open end of the hose running from a gas regulator into the non-beveled end of the pipe secured in the pipe vise. Cover the end of the pipe with duct tape to hold the pipe in place and seal the pipe. Connect the regulator to a bottle of argon gas. Turn the valve handle counterclockwise to start flowing gas into the pipe. 5 Set the beveled end of the first pipe against the beveled end of the pipe secured in the pipe vise. 6 Place a combination square across the two pieces of pipe. Ensure both pieces of pipe are sitting even with the bottom of the combination square blade. 7 Turn on a TIG welder. Hold the TIG torch in the weld joint. Activate and hold the torch in the weld joint for two seconds to tack the pieces together. Rotate the pipes 1/4 turn. Place a second tack weld in the weld joint. Repeat the process two more times to place four total tack welds between the two pieces of pipe. 8 Seal the open end of the pipe with duct tape. 9 Align one end of a piece of stainless steel filler rod with the weld joint. Activate the welder. Move the TIG torch and the filler rod together along the joint to weld the pipes. 10 Allow the welded joint to cool before removing the pipe from the pipe vise. aat I hope this article may help you in TIG welding a stainless steel pipe. Above are the step by step instructions that will guide you on what to do. These are the materials needed on doing this thing.

SMAW, or stick welding, uses a coated electrode to produce a weld bead on multiple pieces of metal. Running a weld bead with a stick electrode requires the proper combination of heat, speed and electrode gap. A weld bead run with one improper factor leads to a weak weld prone to failure under stress. 1 Secure a 1/4-inch hard grinding wheel to the threaded arbor of an angle grinder. Depress the angle drill trigger. Remove contaminates from the surface of the weld joint by running the spinning hard grinding wheel along the joint until you see shiny metal along the entire weld joint. 2 Put on a welding hood and welding gloves. Secure a stick welding electrode in the stinger of an arc welder. Attach the ground clamp to the metal or a conductive table holding the metal. 3 Turn the amperage adjustment knob to the setting shown on the side of the welder for the thickness and type of metal you are welding. 4 Hold the tip of the stick electrode 1/8 inch above the surface of the weld joint. Lower your welding hood. Touch the surface of electrode on the weld joint and immediately lift it back to 1/8 inch above the metal. 5 Move the welding electrode 1/8 inch down the weld joint. Swing the electrode in the opposite direction and up another 1/8 inch. Continue moving the electrode in a "C" shape, always moving 1/8 inch with each swing across the weld joint. 6 Hit the finished weld with the pointed end of a chipping hammer to remove the protective slag from the surface of the weld. This is an article that helps on how to run a stick welding bead. It has a step by step guide on how to do it. For more information just read the articles above and learn how to do it.

Sat, 04 Feb 2012 09:02:52 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/welding-metallurgy-/metallurgical-engineering-degrees/view#623 Metallurgy is the art and science that studies the extraction, composition and properties of metals for human use. Metallurgy degree programs train students in metallurgical principals so they can analyze engineering problems related to metals and develop solutions that lead to improved extraction and manufacturing processes and designs. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, materials engineering and mining engineering, the industries most metallurgical engineering graduates opt for, are high-employment growth industries with a projected growth of 9 and 15 percent, respectively. Metallurgical Engineering Specialties The courses and degree programs you should choose will depend on the metallurgical specialty you are aiming for. There are three main branches of metallurgy you can specialize in: extractive metallurgy, which focuses on the chemical extraction of metals; physical metallurgy, which focuses on the composition and properties of metals; and mechanical metallurgy, which studies the processing of metal. Degrees with a Major in Metallurgical Engineering A bachelor's degree is the basic qualification for a metallurgical engineer. Universities and colleges that offer degrees with a major in metallurgical engineering, such as the Colorado School of Mines, focus on providing students with a broad understanding of materials and the application of materials concepts to solve problems. These programs include extensive work in state-of-the-art laboratories in foundry science, physical and mechanical metallurgy as well as welding and joining. ISeek, Minnesota's official job search website, estimates about 20 colleges in the United States offer metallurgical engineering degrees. Advanced Degrees Graduates in a field of engineering can enroll in an advanced degree program or a master of science program with a major in metallurgical and materials science. If your undergraduate degree was not in the field of metallurgical or materials engineering, you will be required to complete specific undergraduate courses. For instance, the University of Texas at El Paso requires students to have experience in applied chemical thermodynamics, rate processes in material systems and physical metallurgy. Students seeking a master of science degree must prove their capability with independent and innovative research through publishing a thesis work. Employment Opportunities Graduates in metallurgical engineering have studied a wide variety of subjects and are skilled in many aspects of engineering, which is why they are sought out in many industries. For instance, if you earn a metallurgical engineering degree, you could work as a foundry metallurgist, a welding engineer, a quality control and testing supervisor, a mining engineer or even an aeronautical engineer. http://www.ehow.com/info_7925517_metallurgical-engineering-degrees.html This is an article that may help you in your welding carrier. By choosing your welding degrees you will have a guide on where you were going or you have the idea what to pursue in your welding carrier. Read the article above and choose the best for yourself!

Sat, 04 Feb 2012 08:52:49 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/welding-supplies-forum/weldingmart-free-shipping-on-most-products/view#622 This website is one to consider as a good supplier of welding machine and other welding supplies. Speaking of the quality and the products they are selling it has proven and tested by many welders all over the wold . For more information just visit their website at http://www.weldingmart.com. Sat, 04 Feb 2012 08:30:51 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/general-welder-machine-forum/welding-supplies-what-you-need-before-starting-a-welding-business/view#620 Thinking of starting a welding business? Then you have bigger concerns than just buying welding supplies. Seriously, it might just be the best or the worst thing ever you ever did... and I wish you luck. So lets talk about some welding supplies you are going to need whether your welding business will be portable or in a shop environment. Let's talk welding machines first. For a welding shop environment, You are going to need a good Tig welder, and a good mig welder. A regular old arc welder will only be used as a last resort like when your mig welder breaks, but you need one anyway just because used arc welders are dirt cheap and you just might need one. I recommend going with Miller or Lincoln for both the TIG and MIG welding machines. They are the 2 biggest brands and it makes sense to stick with reputable manufacturers so that you can get parts when something breaks. But what about new or used? A used Miller syncrowave 250 can be had on eBay for about 2000 dollars. A tip here is to try to get as many accessories as possible with the deal. Things like a water cooler, tig torch, foot pedal, and tungsten electrodes can quickly add up to 1000 dollars and your seller might be willing to sweeten the pot just to close the deal. Think about shopping Craigslist too. A used Millermatic 250 is a great mig welding machine. They usually go for less than 1000 dollars. Try shopping Craigslist as well as eBay. If your are leary of buying a used welding machine and can afford a new one, just do it. Miller and Lincoln both offer good warranties on their welding equipment. That might be worth some piece of mind. I am not afraid of used Miller welders because all of mine are used. But what about other welding supplies like welding helmets, gloves, grinders, electrodes, torches, ground clamps, etc? It is best to buy some things like power tools brand new. Northern Tool has some really good deals on 4 1/2" Dewalt grinders and other power tools. Sometimes they even offer free shipping. They even sell welding machines and foldable welding tables. You can save money by buying some other small items on eBay. Especially welding supply accessories like tig cups, collets, collet bodies, mig nozzles, tungsten electrodes, etc. These little things can add up. You can easily hold a hundred dollars worth in the palm of your hand. Many eBay sellers sell a whole batch of tig cups for what you might pay for just one at your local welding supply store.

Fri, 03 Feb 2012 07:35:18 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/mig-welding-forum/how-to-use-a-gasless-mig-welder/view#616 MIG welding uses a wire that continuously feeds through a nozzle at the end of a handheld gun to join metal. This wire makes an electrical short circuit with the work piece, producing heat that melts the wire and some of the metal from the work piece, combining them together to form a solid weld. Gasless MIG welding wire has a material inside called flux that burns in this process and forms a shield to protect the metal from oxidation as it cools. 1 Install the wire spool in the welder, engaging the wire in the grooves. Set the tension correctly. The tension should not be too tight, which can cause excessive wear, nor too loose, which can cause the wire not to feed correctly. Select a piece of scrap metal to practice on. 2 Connect the ground clamp to the work piece. Wiggle the clamp to ensure a good connection. 3 Set the voltage and the wire feed speed to a point halfway between minimum and maximum. As you practice with scrap metal, you'll learn the effects of different voltages and wire feed speeds. 4 A good welding helmet and gloves protect the eyes and skin. Put on welding gloves, and have your welding helmet ready for use. 5 Pull the trigger on the gun until the wire extends about an inch from the end of the nozzle, then release. Hold the gun so that the metal is almost touching the workpiece. Bring the welding helmet to your face, completely covering it, so that you can look through the lens. Nothing will be visible through the lens until you begin. 6 Squeeze the trigger gently. The wire will begin to feed, coming closer to the metal. When it is close enough, the electric current will begin to flow between the wire end and the gun. This process produces an extremely bright light, which will allow you to see through the lens of the helmet. 7 The wire comes through nozzles that look like this. Pull the gun toward you in a smooth, gentle fashion. Watch as the metal melts, forming a "puddle" of metal that cools to become a solid bead. When you are finished with the bead, release the trigger and pull the gun back from the metal. 8 Inspect the bead of weld. It should be smooth and uniform with no spattering. If the weld has burned through the metal, try less voltage next time. If the bead sits on top of the metal, and did not penetrate it, try more voltage next time. If the bead is not thick enough, increase the wire speed, or slow down your speed of the gun.

Fri, 03 Feb 2012 04:52:34 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/mig-welding-forum/things-to-know-about-a-mig-welding-gun/view#612 Welding is the art of combining two metal pieces with the help of a molten solution forming the joint between the pieces once it is allowed to cool down. Welding is a process which is mainly used by manufacturing industries to weld steel, alloys, metals, iron and other components and manufacture things and appliances we use in a our everyday lives. It is a process used for building ships, cars and other vehicles as well as machines to perform specific tasks. In general welding is used to create both heavier strong items as well as smaller gadgets. Welding procedure in general involves a generator, water coolers, wire feeders and plasma cutters. The welder is a person who performs the art- he uses a welding helmet to protect his eyes from the harmful sparks and gases released during the process and other protective apparels to protect his body. Welding procedure is a very easy method and anyone with the resolve can perform welding. In fact these days' teenagers and students undertake welding jobs in part time to earn a few bucks while they are studying. All you need to do is pay attention while you learn the procedure and protect yourself with appropriate things while you perform welding. Welding does demand higher precision and concentration to create perfect joints while you are performing. Welding gun among welding equipments is the most crucial equipment for performing welding techniques. Without which you simply cannot weld. It is important that your MIG torch in MIG welding is comfortably seated and of good quality for the wire to feed through smoothly and evenly. Most problems that arise during welding are related to wire feed issues. A blockage eventually causes the arc to behave erratic and inconsistent which in turn obstructs the constant arc voltage and constant arc voltage is a very important factor in welding technique to do a good job. The erratic nature of behavior simply rises due to the wear and tear of your MIG welding gun. It can also be due to deposition of dust in the gun. If your work factory is located in a rural area and it doesn't have any concrete flooring, it is pretty liable t get infested with dust particles which settles on your machines as well as equipments and especially your welding gun. This leads to wear and tear of equipments which further creates several issues for you. The drive rollers of the feeding mechanism is often infested without outside dust particles as well as metallic residual wastes obtained from grinding and cutting of pieces. All these factors work its way through the wire feed and into the liner of the gun which severely damages the gun. If you have a financial backing all you need to do is create a perfect environment for welding which protects the factory from outside dust particles. Else you will have to maintain the equipments on a regular basis. Keep cleaning the liner of the gun depending upon the welding work load you perform. Use felt wipers behind the drive rollers to wipe off all the crud attached to the welding wire.

The argon forces the metal vapor to ionize, which creates a finger-like penetration in the metal. When carbon dioxide is added, the electric arc's width broadens and makes a shallower, wider weld. MIG pulsed spray alternates between high and low electrical currents. The electrical current creates an arc, which melts the metal welding wire. The molten metal detaches from the tip of the wire and is sprayed out by electromagnetic forces towards the weld pool. 1 Set the shielding gas mixture of your MIG to 80 percent argon and 20 percent carbon dioxide. Recess the contact tip 1/8-inch inside of the nozzle so the electrode sticks out 3/4 inch to 1 inch. 2 Turn on the MIG. Hold the nozzle at a 5 to 10 degree angle. 3 Push the nozzle tip forward while holding it at a 10-degree angle to the metal. Start to move the tip up and down the joint while moving it slightly side to side. If the metal you are welding is thinner than 1/4 inch move the MIG tip forward and back along the joint, don't move it side to side.

Both problems occur when the zinc, compromising the galvanized coating, burns and evaporates from the weld area. Clearing the weld joint of zinc will eliminate the problems associated with stick welding galvanized steel. Mechanical means are the only way to effectively remove zinc from the weld joint and ensure your safety. Even with the majority of zinc removed from the weld joint, using the correct electrode will ensure a strong finished weld. 1 Attach a 60-grit flapper wheel to the threaded arbor of an angle grinder. Activate the grinder and run the spinning flapper wheel over both sides of the galvanized weld joint. Stop grinding when no dull gray galvanized metal remains on the weld joint. 2 Align the pieces of cleaned galvanized metal to set the weld joint. Set up a fan to blow toward the pieces of metal. Turn on the fan. 3 Clamp a 6011 stick electrode in the electrode holder of an arc welder. Connect the arc welder ground to one piece of galvanized metal entering the weld joint. 4 Start the welding arc near one end of the weld joint. Pull the electrode 1/8 inch down the weld joint and pause for one second. Continue moving and pausing until the entire weld joint welds together. Allow the weld to cool for 30 minutes. 5 Hit the surface of the weld with a hammer to remove slag from the weld surface. Clean reaming slag from the weld with a wire brush. Spray cold galvanizing on the weld to protect it from corrosion.

As a manufacturer, we respect the role of forums and will only comment on subjects where we feel we can add particular value to the discussion. As there have been a number of comments on the origin of GYS machines we would like to post some factual information on the industrial group which we hope is helpful. Of course, additional information can be found on the website: www.gys.fr GYS is a French family-owned industrial group created in 1964 in the city of Laval, 280 Km west of Paris. GYS engineers, designs and sells three families of products: arc welding equipment, car body repair equipment and automotive battery service equipment. As of 2012, the group has 460 employees in four locations (France, Germany, UK & China) and in 2011 achieved a consolidated turnover slightly above US$ 70M. With 360 employees in France, our very modern 18 000m2 factory in Laval (West of France) manufactures 100% of our professional welding machines and in 2011 the group manufactured more than 350 000 machines in total. GYS also operates a wholly owned factory in Shanghai as well as three international sales subsidiaries in Germany, UK and China.

Founded in 1895, Lincoln produces TIG welders, MIG welders and stick welders that are used throughout the world. These are durable and trusted welding machines. However, as with most industrial machinery, wear and tear inevitably occurs. Whether you have an issue with the gun trigger, a low gas flow or an overheating machine, run through a few troubleshooting steps before taking your machine in for a service. 1 Run the Lincoln stick welder at a lower duty cycle if there is no gas flow or weld output when the gun trigger is pulled and the fan is operating normally. The thermostat may have tripped due to overheating. Allow the welder time to cool. Check the lines for air-flow obstructions. Inspect the gun trigger connections for damage and replace the trigger if necessary. Contact Lincoln Electric if you need to replace the trigger or require any other parts for your welder. 2 Check to see that the power switch is set to "On" if the wire does not feed out and there is no weld output or flow of gas when the gun trigger is pulled and the fan is not operating. Reset the circuit breaker. 3 Ensure that the drive rolls are correctly installed if the drive motor is running and there is no wire feed when you pull the gun trigger. Check that the cable liner and contact tip are free of obstructions or clogs and are the correct size for the Lincoln stick welder. 4 Check that there is adequate gas supply to the welder if there is low or no gas flow when the gun trigger is pulled and the wire feed and fan are operating normally. Inspect the gas hoses and flow regulator for damage. Examine the gun connection to the machine for any leaky seals or obstructions. 5 Inspect the gun tip for wear and tear or damage if the weld arc is unstable or if you are having difficulty starting the gun. Check that the gun tip is the proper size for the gun. Ensure that the work cables and connections are secure.

Being able to create solid and safe steel-framed structures requires precision metal working applications, especially when welding. Stick welders are used to weld heavier gauge steel. Stick welders range from 180 amps to 300 amps. There are a few specific applications that 225 amp stick welders can perform that lower amperage welders cannot do. Stair Treads Welding the stair treads to steel stair stringers is a common application for stick welders as the welds need to be very strong. The treads are clamped into place while the worker secures the treads first by tack welding the corners of the stair tread. Tack welding is welding in a small area to stabilize the object so it will not shift during welding. This is a common practice and allows the worker to double-check measurements to ensure everything is properly set up before fully securing the treads to the stair stringers. Steel Beam Jack Post Supports Steel I-beams are extremely thick, making drilling bolt holes for attaching jack posts a lost cause. Stick welding the top jack post flange bracket to the I-beam is an effective way to guarantee that the post will not separate from the beam. This will ensure the beam is properly supported to carry the weight load of the house. Bar Joists Bar joists are often set on the top walls to support a large floor or a flat roof. The walls have steel plates that the bar joists sit on. The bar joists have to be welded onto the steel plates. Angle iron has to be used in specific sections per the engineer's requirements to make the bar joists more stable. These are also welded into place. This is a very strong system when welded properly and can handle a very large weight load.

Sat, 21 Jan 2012 06:50:30 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/tig-welding-forum/how-to-tig-with-thick-aluminum/view#559 TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding became instantly popular in the 1940s for welding magnesium and aluminum. It uses an inert gas shield instead of slag to protect the weldpool. It is often used with steel, magnesium and aluminum but of these, aluminum is more difficult and takes more welding skill to do properly. TIG welding is the only way to weld aluminum. With proper skill, you can make beautiful welds more quickly and easily than with other welding processes. 1 Clean and prepare the aluminum with acetone cleaner, water and the stainless steel brush. Unlike steel, even if the aluminum looks clean and brand new it is not. Make sure you do not use the stainless steel brush you use on aluminum on any other metals. 2 Grind the electrode to a point using the grinder. 3 Choose the correct electrode and filler rod. Use the smallest diameter tungsten for the amperage you are using. Use a 1/16-inch pure tungsten for 30 to 80 amps; a 3/32-inch pure tungsten for 60 to 130 amps, and a 1/8-inch pure tungsten for 100 to 180 amps 4 Insert the electrode by unscrewing the tip of the torch and sliding it into the collet. 5 Establish an arc using the correct flow of current and gas for the desired weld according to the documentation that came with the welder. 6 Create the weld puddle. Hold the torch at a 90 degree angle to the aluminum for a butt weld, centering the weld pool over the two pieces. For a lap weld, hold the torch at a 70 degree angle forming the pool of the overlapping piece and the flat piece so they flow together. For a T-joint, use a 40 degree angle on the torch to direct more heat to the flat surface. Finally, for the corner joint, hold the torch at a 90 degree angle forming the pool across the center of the two pieces. 7 Add the filler metal dip into the puddle while pushing it along the metal. 8 End the arc and leave the torch over the puddle to protect it while it cools. Make sure the electrode does not touch the weld pool Read more: How to Tig With Thick Aluminum | eHow.com http://www.ehow.com/how_8773641_tig-thick-aluminum.html#ixzz1k4JirLu3 Here is an article I would to share with of how to weld thick aluminum using TIG welding.

The Miller Passport is a dual voltage mig welder that uses a self contained CO2 cylinder like used in paintball guns...so you can refill it at Sporting good stores instead of the local welding supply store who keeps bankers hours. The Hobart Trek 180 battery powered welder is good too. But comparing the 2 is like apples and oranges. The Miller Passport has a really smooth arc but is not as portable as the Hobart Trek 180 mig welder. This machine looks great and indeed very portable and handy.

Sat, 21 Jan 2012 04:16:37 -0600 http://www.welderworld.com/welding-forum/stick-welding-forum/rod-types-for-ac-stick-welding/view#554 http://i.ehow.com/images/a06/er/mr/rod-types-ac-stick-welding-1.1-800x800.jpg AC welding rods come in a variety of sizes and materials. AC stick welding, also known as arc welding, uses different types of metal electrodes known as rods to weld different metals. Rods come in different sizes and materials for specific applications. While some rods are good for general purpose welds, welding rusted, painted or non-ferrous materials requires specific rods. The dozens of different rods can be divided into three categories depending on the material to be welded: general purpose, specialty and non-ferrous. General Purpose Welding rods are numbered using the American Welding Society numbering system. In this four-digit numbering system, the most common general purpose welding rods are 6010, 6011, 6013 and 7018. The 6010 rod penetrates deeply and is the most general-purpose of the group since it can be used on almost all steels. Almost the same as 6010, 6011 is a general purpose rod that can be used with either AC or DC currents. When compared to 6010 or 6011, 6013 has a shallower penetration and a more refined look. Finally, 7018 gives the highest quality weld out of the group. Specialty When welding painted or deeply rusted surfaces, a general purpose rod isn't always the best choice. Some rods are designed to be used specifically on these surfaces. The most common of these rods is 6014, which penetrates deeply through rust and paint. 2100 rods deposit a small amount of ferrite in the weld, which is needed to join stainless steel. Non-Ferrous Non-ferrous metals like aluminum and aluminum alloys require specific rods that address the lower melting point of aluminum. Rods numbered 1100 and 4043 are most commonly used for pure aluminum. The difference between the two is that 1100 is used to weld aluminum and aluminum alloys only and 4043 is used to produce a stronger weld in aluminum.

To properly weld two pieces of metal together, you will need to spot weld the pieces the way you want them lined up before you run the final weld bead over the metal pieces. To spot weld with a metal inert gas (MIG) welder, all you have to do is pull a trigger on the MIG welder gun and begin to weld. 1 Line up the pieces of metal you want to weld together the way you want them positioned. 2 Clamp the pieces together with steel clamps, which won't melt from the MIG welder's extreme heat. 3 Turn on the MIG welder. 4 Put on your leather gloves and welding helmet. 5 Position the MIG welder gun a half inch over an end of the seam between the pieces of metal. To spot weld you want to just weld literally a spot at the ends of the seam you plan to run a full weld bead on. 6 Lower your welding helmet and pull the welder gun trigger for 3 seconds and let go of the trigger. To spot weld you want to just weld literally a spot at the ends of the seam you plan to run a full weld bead on. 7 Pull up your welding helmet and position the welder gun over the other end of the seam you need to spot weld and repeat step 6.
