Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) Welding Process
 

 

The tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding process is commonly referred to as gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW). TIG welding process joins metals by melting base and filler metals with an arc struck between a tungsten electrode and the work piece. The tungsten electrode should not become part of the completed weld in normal operation. Filler metal in the tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding process is typically used and argon inert gas or inert gas mixtures are used for shielding.
