TIG welding is a precision, high-quality welding technique that uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode. The term “TIG” (tungsten inert gas) references the non-reactive gas (usually argon) employed to protect the weld area from atmospheric contamination.
Examples of TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding applications include:
1. Automotive Industry: TIG welding is used to assemble exhaust systems, fuel tanks, and engine components.
2. Aerospace Industry: It is employed on aircraft components like engine parts, aluminum and titanium structural members, and fuel lines.
3. Fabrication Industry: For various fabrication projects, TIG welding is used to join non-ferrous metals like aluminum, copper, and others.
