2. Gas tungsten arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_tungsten_arc_welding

   GTAW weld area. Manual gas tungsten arc welding is a relatively difficult welding method, due to the coordination required by the welder. Similar to torch welding, GTAW normally requires two hands, since most applications require that the welder manually feed a filler metal into the weld area with one hand while manipulating the welding torch in the other.

3. Shielding gas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielding_gas

   Shielding gases fall into two categories—inert or semi-inert. Only two of the noble gases, helium and argon, are cost effective enough to be used in welding.These inert gases are used in gas tungsten arc welding, and also in gas metal arc welding for the welding of non-ferrous metals.

4. 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 ...

5. TIP TIG - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TIP_TIG

   TIP TIG welding torch. TIP TIG is a subset of gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), using a mechanism called filler wire agitation to enhance molten weld pool dynamics. This agitation has been found to enhance the weld puddle fluidity and release evolving gases, reducing the chances of inclusions and porosity, and also separate impurities.

6. Weld purging - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weld_purging

   For TIG/GTAW welding, the top side (front side) of a weld is normally protected by inert gas flowing through the welding torch and it is the underside (back side) of the weld where atmospheric gases need to be purged. When joining two parts together with a seal weld, it may be necessary to first hold them together, by making tack welds. [7]
