Mastering TIG Welding: Principles, Processes, and Applications
TIG welding, also known as GTAW, has become a universal joining method through which several major industries operate in regard to its precision and the versatility of working with it. The processes are employed to weld longitudinal seams in thin-wall stainless steel and alloy pressure pipes, and in continuous strip mills, where a lack of filler metal is often preferred. On the contrary, it also employs the presence of filler metal for thicker walled pipes and tubing in all welding positions inside the power generation, chemical, and petroleum industries.
