Tig Welding 304 Stainless Steel Bends: Should You Use Mandral or Sanitary?

[@nicoquattro3950]

For tacking stainless tubes for railings or exhaust stuff I switched to use the pulse function. 0,70 seconds go, 0,90 seconds or 1 second stop, and for me it works great for gaps even up to 3 or 4mm wide.

Formed bends here in the UK are Grade 316, most mandrel ones are Grade 304, I find the 316 weld much nicer. Helpful video, thank you.

[@tommy3p]

316 is great. We have them also but they are more expensive. Thanks for watching!

Mandrel bends are usually full of oil from the bending process.

[@tommy3p]

Yes they are. Much more prep is needed for mandrel stuff.

Do you have a recommendation on where to get good quality formed bends?
