2. Gas tungsten arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_tungsten_arc_welding

   Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW, also known as tungsten inert gas welding or TIG, and heliarc welding when helium is used) is an arc welding process that uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld. The weld area and electrode are protected from oxidation or other atmospheric contamination by an inert shielding gas (argon or ...

3. Shielding gas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielding_gas

   C-50 (50% argon/50% CO 2) is used for short arc welding of pipes, C-40 (60% argon/40% CO 2) is used for some flux-cored arc welding cases. Better weld penetration than C-25. C-25 (75% argon/25% CO 2) is commonly used by hobbyists and in small-scale production. Limited to short circuit and globular transfer welding.

4. Orbital welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_welding

   These systems are rated for extreme purity and leak tight integrity. An entire specialty industry supplying valves, fittings, regulators, gauges and other components for orbital welding and use in high purity applications has developed since the mid 1980s. For tube welding in high purity applications only a fully enclosed weld head may be used.

5. Arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_welding

   Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), or tungsten/inert-gas (TIG) welding, is a manual welding process that uses a non-consumable electrode made of tungsten, an inert or semi-inert gas mixture, and a separate filler material. Especially useful for welding thin materials, this method is characterized by a stable arc and high quality welds, but it ...

6. Welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding

   Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), or tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, is a manual welding process that uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode, an inert or semi-inert gas mixture, and a separate filler material. [36]

7. Weld purging - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weld_purging

   Most weld purging is carried out on joints made by the TIG or GTAW arc welding process. [6] When the laser welding process is chosen, joints or welds being made on reactive materials will need to be carried out and in the case of electron beam welding, this is carried out in a vacuum, in which case purging takes place by complete evacuation of all gas.
